Krefeld in concern: retired pediatricians - who steps in?

Medical care for children in Krefeld faces an increasing challenge. According to information from RP online , the situation by pediatricians is currently not permanent. About a third of the resident pediatricians in Krefeld is already over 60 years old. This suggests that many could retire in the next ten years.

The North Rhine Association (KVNO) has no reliable forecasts as to whether sufficient successors will be available for the pediatric pediatricians. A worrying situation that already emerges in adjacent cities such as Moers, where some practices remain vacant because there is a lack of successors. Dr. Robert Primke, a Krefeld pediatrician, warns of the emerging problems that arise from this demographic development.

outlook and challenges

The potential problem of the long of the doctor is not only reflected in the Krefeld practices, but also represents a far -reaching challenge that concerns cities across the region. If the number of pediatricians available further, parents in Krefeld and the surrounding area could increasingly have difficulty finding adequate care for their children. The situation requires immediate measures to ensure stable future health care for the youngest members of our society.

Development remains critical, and the commitment to sustainable solutions will become the key challenge of the coming years.
