Sardinia without pediatricians and family doctors: it's an emergency

Thousands of children without a pediatrician in Sardinia. And for adults things are no better: general practitioners risk extinction. Already today 450 are missing. But the Observatory on Public Accounts estimates that in 2028, between retirements (many) and new hires (few), the deficit will rise to 649 units.

Returning to the little ones, just one example: two thousand children are without a pediatrician in the Assemini, Elmas and Decimomannu areas alone. Thousands in the rest of Sardinia. A very serious emergency, which has repercussions on hospitals: the emergency rooms are under attack because parents have no alternatives.

«The situation is dramatic»: this is how Osama Al Jamal, regional secretary of the Italian Federation of pediatricians, defines it .
