Question 12624 — medicine

Summary

Mr. Lionel Tivoli draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and Disabled People to the demographics of dermatologists in the Alpes-Maritimes. The Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, like many other territories in France, is experiencing a lasting crisis in access to dermatological care. In the Nice area specifically, the shortage of health professionals in dermatology is partly explained by due to a structural deficit in initial training reinforced by aggravating factors such as the rise of aesthetic medicine. In France, almost 50% of patients are unable to obtain a dermatology consultation. This situation causes numerous delays in diagnosis, particularly of melanoma, which can have dramatic consequences. Furthermore, many chronic skin diseases cannot be effectively managed due to lack of early diagnosis. In the Alpes-Maritimes, the problem of training specialist doctors is also at issue. The too low number of interns trained in the department has a direct consequence on the low medical demographics and this has the effect of leading to a break in equal access to care which is not acceptable. Consequently, he asks her to please train him an exhaustive inventory of the situation as well as informing him of the measures that can be implemented as soon as possible in order to sustainably resolve the problem of the demographics of dermatologists in the country.
