The lack of hematologists in the Baixo Alentejo and Algarve regions has reached critical levels, according to the Medical Union. This situation calls into question the capacity of health services to respond in these areas of the country.
The union expressed concern about the shortage of professionals in this medical specialty. Hematologists are responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of blood diseases.
According to the Medical Union, the solution to resolve this shortage involves opening new positions for the hematology specialty. The creation of more jobs aims to attract professionals to the most underserved regions.
