Île-de-France is the region where access to care is the fastest.

But the gaps between departments remain significant according to specialties.

Paris is the department where it is easiest to quickly get a medical appointment.

But several suburban territories also show good results, sometimes unexpected.

According to a Cartes de France 2026 report on access to care, published by the Jean-Jaurès Foundation and Doctolib, Île-de-France remains a region well-off in the country for access to care.

The results are encouraging, particularly in cardiology where the median delay to get an appointment in Paris is only 16 days, the lowest delay in France.

At the other extreme, some departments exceed several months of waiting time, such as Gers where the delay reaches 164 days.
