Originally from the Centre region, Dr Joseph Helman has chosen Lauzerte for his long-term practice. After studying medicine in Angers, he opted for general medicine, a specialty that allows him to combine the medical, social, and human aspects of patient care. His thesis focused on the use of connected watches in general medicine.
His move to Lauzerte is also a personal choice, seeking to return to a rural lifestyle and be closer to his partner's family, who is from the town. He highlighted the warm welcome he received from the residents.
Dr Helman is practicing as a junior doctor, participating in a year-long university training and supervision program, while independently managing consultations. His goal is to continue practicing at the Lauzerte medical center.
As a newcomer, he also reflects on the living conditions of young people in rural areas, mentioning the need for meeting places and spaces for leisure, sports, or cultural activities. The Lauzerte town hall welcomes him.
New patients are accepted at the Lauzerte Medical Center, 4, rue de l’Éveillé – 82110 Lauzerte. Appointments can be made by phone at 05 63 94 66 78 or online via Doctolib.
