Done with a hopeless search for dentist and general practitioner: Flemish government wants fewer specialists to graduate

In Flanders it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a general practitioner in the area and quickly decorate an appointment at a dentist is no longer there. However, the solution is simple: more general practitioners and dentists have to graduate. Flemish Minister for Education Zuhal Demir (N-VA) and her colleague Caroline Gennez (Vooruit) promise that they will take care of this. How do they want to do that? “The intention is that students who are not admitted to a specialization will be forced to opt for a specialization as a doctor.”
