The minister rejected ELSTAT’s information on health services, referring to a “indifferent table” and a “democratic find”, while responding to the opposition accusations in the face of the TIF he said that “a lot of crying will fall (in the opposition after Mitsotakis speech”.
“The NHS for completely political expediency is being criticized. (…) It is an indifferent indicator, the satisfaction indicator. Eurostat never explains to us what exactly counts. And concerns a poll. And in Greece, where we all suffer and blame others, it is normal for the tendency to be negative, “Mr Georgiadis said, commenting on Eurostat’s health data and continued:” In Greece all health services for the poorest are free. There is nothing you pay! “
‘Better than the past the NHS’
He noted that shortages in the health system are real, “but less than ever”: “The NHS is a giant with 110,000 workers, 127 hospitals, 360 health centers. (…) Do you say there is no shortage? There have always been shortages. The question is, this year, in 2025, do we have more shortages from the past or fewer? I claim with numbers that are not disputed that in 2025 the shortages in the NHS are less than ever! “
“The NHS compared to 2012 is three times better than the past: we have faster digital systems, we have more doctors, more nurses, more surgeries, shorter expectations,” Mr Georgiadis continued, stressing that waiting for surgery this year have fallen.
Regarding complaints about the shortages of doctors and infrastructure in hospitals, he stressed: “There was a pathologist at Corfu Hospital 1 year ago. In the spring we got a second physician and from August 6 we got a third. (…) January has no ranch. ” He also said that the same applies to other Piraeus hospitals. “In Tzanio 4 floors have been rebuilt, so do Metaxas, and if all goes well, late September, I will make a statement about Metaxas Hospital that will change the unit and the area forever.”
“Metaxas has very little waiting because it is an oncology hospital and all incidents are considered urgent,” he also said.
