An illness that was underestimated, perhaps to avoid interrupting service and continue caring for her 1,800 patients, then the sudden illness that necessitated her emergency transfer to the San Francesco Hospital in Nuoro. This is what happened to Dr. Maddalena Carta, a young and respected family doctor in Dorgali , now hospitalized in serious condition at Brotzu Hospital in Cagliari.

The town has been in suspense for hours, gripped by the doctor, who for a year has been a point of reference for hundreds of families in the area . Her condition worsened after her initial hospitalization: colleagues at the Nuoro emergency room arranged for her to be transferred by air ambulance, given the complexity of her clinical condition.

A message of support arrived from Dorgali's mayor, Angela Testone , who publicly expressed the thoughts and concerns of the entire community. "We hope that Dr. Maddalena Carta's youthful strength will help her overcome this difficult time. We hope that the other two general practitioners can also recover quickly and well."

The health situation in the area is now critical: in addition to Dr. Carta, the other two general practitioners working in Dorgali are currently unavailable due to health problems . The Municipality promptly informed the Nuoro Local Health Authority, requesting urgent intervention to ensure at least temporary coverage. "As of now, no solution has been found. Other stopgap solutions have proven unviable. Any changes regarding replacements will be communicated promptly," the mayor added. Meanwhile, Dorgali awaits encouraging news on Dr. Carta's condition.
