Dermatologist Dr. Müller closes practice - supply gap in Fulda!

Dermatologist Dr. Müller closes practice - supply gap in Fulda!
The dermatological practice of Dr. Werner Müller on Heinrichstrasse in Fulda will close on September 30th. After 33 years of professional experience in the region, during which he worked on Bahnhofstraße from 1992 to 2001 and since 2001 on Heinrichstrasse, the doctor is forced to close his doors because he could not find a successor. This is part of a growing problem in healthcare that Dr. Müller referred to as "tense supply situation in the field of dermatology".
dr. Müller searched intensively for a suitable successor, but without success. This situation is not only stressful for him, but also reflects a larger trend. Factors such as increasing administrative work, unfavorable political framework and pregnancy planning of young doctors make it difficult to take over individual practices, especially women in the dermatological area. According to accounting office.com , the takeover of an existing practice is often associated with considerable challenges, despite the advantage of an existing patient strain and an existing infrastructure.
The supply situation in Fulda
The fact that the MVZ Dermatology Osthessen takes over the pension mandate at the Fulda Clinic does not change the fact that Dr. Müller's practice could further burden dermatological care in Fulda. The MVZ's application at the assumption of the cash office is currently underway, but it remains to be seen how quickly it will be processed and whether it is ultimately approved.
The challenges in taking over practices are diverse. Whether it is about the market analyzes, the examination of contracts or the complex tax aspects when taking over - doctors are faced with many exams. Even a business plan is often essential to check financing options and successfully take on an existing practice. The topic of the admission restrictions in some cities also makes it difficult to start a new foundation, which requires the takeover of existing practices in less regulated regions.
financial aspects and challenges
The financial requirements of a practical opening can be considerable. According to billungenstelle.com , the average investments for general practitioner practices are 169,300 euros. This sum includes material and intangible values, including the goodwill. The regulations for the takeover of the practice require the greatest possible care, starting with the location analysis up to the entry in the doctor's register, which are not simple steps.
The closure of Dr. Müller's practice is therefore not only a personal loss for him, but also represents a significant setback for dermatological care in the Fulda region. The continuing challenges of the industry demand new solutions to ensure health care permanently. Medical care centers can be an answer to such bottlenecks, but the way there is often stony and uncertain.
