Westfjords need more dentists, both in \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. Now there is a great opportunity for a dentist to come to the outsourcing paradise that is Vestfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur.<\/p>\n
The Vestfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Health Institute has no role in the provision of dental services. The only official approach is that the dental offices at the health centers in \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur are rented to independent dentists. However, it is the case that the CEO is in point 1.9 of health policy until 2030<\/a> made "district managers of health issues within their district", and we therefore want to do our part to ensure the dental health of the population. For this purpose, the director has been in contact with the mayor of the district, the Dental Association of Iceland and the chief dentist in the Development Center of Icelandic Health Care.<\/p>\n Sigurj\u00f3n Gu\u00f0mundsson recently retired due to age. He leaves behind a fully equipped salon and a district that needs a dentist next to Vi\u00f0ar Konr\u00e1\u00f0sson. Advertisements have been made among Icelandic dentists without success. In Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, it so happens that the population in the vicinity is not enough to support a full-time dentist, especially when you consider that the dental health of Icelanders in general has improved greatly. With the introduction of the D\u00fdrafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur gang, there are hopes that a dentist living in the vicinity of \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur will also be able to attend to Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur.<\/p>\n Now we think there is a reason to look to foreign dentists\u2014and because of licensing issues, especially European ones\u2014and point out to them the advantages of doing dentistry in the Westfjords. For that reason, a video was made and small information page<\/a> which has been published on Facebook among European dentists.<\/p>\n Since all the equipment is available, this opportunity is especially suitable for people who are not far along in their careers.<\/p>\n Any interested dentist should not hesitate to contact Sigurj\u00f3n dentist for more information.<\/p>\nD\u00fdrafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Tunnel connects Vestfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur<\/h2>\n
