Main-Spessart Clinic fights a lack of staff: What does that mean for patients?

A radical cut for patients in the region! The MVZ Main-Spessart has stopped all gastroenterological treatments. The shock message reached those affected via the clinic press office, which announced that the patients were gradually informed about the serious changes.

Gastroenterology-the field that is responsible for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract as well as the adjacent organs such as liver and pancreas-has so far carried out important examinations such as intestinal and gastroscopy. Susanne Theis, team leader Marketing & Communication of the Main-Spessart Clinic, confirmed that these procedures are crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of typical gastrointestinal diseases. But now many patients only wait.

urgent information required!

How many patients are affected by this measure remains a mystery. When asked by the media house about specific numbers, Theis was unable to provide any information. She only emphasized that the demand for these essential studies in the region is extremely high and underlines the need for stable medical care. According to Theis, the MVZ is faced with the challenge of recruiting qualified medical assistance staff, especially in the area of medical assistants.

This current situation leads to another dilemma: patients who rely on endoscopic examinations must now contact specialist internal practices. Where can the help be found? A comprehensive overview can be viewed in the doctor and psychotherapist search portal. However, the clinic's spokeswoman pointed out that no further information can be provided about individual patients or employees.
