The average age of respondents was 50.2 years, 91.5% were male, and 63% completed a fellowship. Of these, 59% of respondents were in academic practice spread across 64 different countries. The most common procedure performed by respondents was complex retrograde endoscopy (83%) followed by percutaneous nephrolithotomy (76%). The majority of respondents (89%) participated in clinical research. Most respondents (96.3%) felt that the ES had an impact on their professional development.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The survey results demonstrate that\u00a0the\u00a0ES\u00a0has a broad international involvement and\u00a0has\u00a0a significant impact on its members\u2019 professional development.
