ImSan waiting lists are growing amid increased chronic illness and difficulties recruiting specialists, medical coordinator Dr. Monica Nuboer-Gonzalez told DIARIO. She did not provide a current waiting-list total.
Urgent cases receive immediate attention
Nuboer-Gonzalez said urgent cases are seen immediately and described communication between general practitioners and eye specialists. She also mentioned work with AZV concerning the eye clinic, with further information to follow.
Recruitment remains difficult
The coordinator said the diabetes centre has been seeking two podotherapists for some time. She described differences between professional roles in the Netherlands and elsewhere in the region, alongside wider shortages across medical disciplines. The interview does not announce a completed recruitment or a timetable for eliminating the backlog.
