As announced on L'Orne Combattante/actu.fr a few weeks ago, Doctor Cortés will leave his practice doctor in La Ferrière-aux-Étangs (Orne).

After his speech at the Flers Agglo community council, the mayor expressed his concern about the medical desertification.

“We cannot be satisfied with such a situation”

A “national” problem according to him: “In 1993, there was a dentist and two doctors full time. We cannot be satisfied with such a situation. There are more than 1,500 inhabitants here, a new territorial network is needed. THE policies must take their responsibilities, local parliamentarians, including Jérôme Nury, are working to provide solutions. »

We lack competition from municipalities in the France rural revitalization zone (FRR), 16% of the municipalities in Orne, including La Ferrière, are not part of it.

He welcomed the news aides planned by Flers Agglo for the installation of doctors in the community.

However, the departure of Dr. Cortès leads to the elimination of “at least one position” of preparation for the pharmacy.
