Müllheim emergency practice in front of the end - mayor continues to fight!

In a shocking step, the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians announced the closure of a total of 18 emergency practices in the region, including the Müllheim emergency practice. This facility, which is located in the Helios Clinic, will close according to the current plans at the end of November 2025. This means that it is one of the last five practices that have to close their doors, the first three close in the coming March. These drastic measures were announced during an event on health care in Stuttgart, in which Müllheim's mayor Martin Löffler also took part.

resistance to the closure

Mayor Löffler has already declared his firm intentions to act against these plans. He emphasizes the need for emergency care on site and plans to check legal steps to prevent the closure. "I want to continue to fight for the preservation of the Müllheimer location," he said combative. A central argument for his resistance is the long journey that patients have to travel to the nearest emergency practices in Freiburg and Lörrach after the Müllheimer practice is closed, such as Verlagshaus-jaumann.de

The announced closure has already caused great concern among the population, while the KVBW indicates a comprehensive and revised emergency supply system. However, the exact design and the reasons behind this decision were not sufficiently communicated, which only increases the uncertainty. In this context, Löffler's resistance is considered an important voice for the populated speed and security in medical care, especially if one considers the high demand and the need for emergency care, as well as Badische-zeitung.de reported.
