A petition against the potential reduction of consultation hours of oncologist Rui Dinis at the Local Health Unit (ULS) of Alto Alentejo has already collected more than 1300 signatures. The initiative arose due to patients' concern about a possible decrease in the time dedicated by the doctor to patients.

Oncologist Rui Dinis is followed by a large number of patients who express the desire to continue being monitored by him. The petition reflects patients' dissatisfaction and concern regarding any changes that may affect access to his services.

The ULS of Alto Alentejo is the health institution where the doctor practices. The case has generated debate within the local community, which sees the potential reduction of hours as a problem for patients who depend on this specialist.
