Treatment in English
Many international families come to Heidelberg with their children for reasons of research and professional careers.
For the past five years or so, I have attended courses on intercultural skills, focusing on working with international families. This is becoming increasingly important in the context of globalization and greater family mobility. Of course, I also offer treatment in English.
Children from all over the world are very welcome in my practice. With me, you will receive a comprehensive diagnosis and highly qualified treatment on a par with international standards.
Consideration of cultural background
Treatment of your child can take place in English – with an interpreter of your choice in other languages. The examination report can also be prepared in English if you wish. I of course take the individual cultural background of you and your child into consideration during examination and treatment.
The treatment process
You can register your child with me directly by telephone – on +49 (0)6221 4853544 – or via email. I will happily support your visa application and reserve treatment dates during your planned stay in Heidelberg. Even if you have returned to your home country with your family, I will be pleased to provide further assistance via internet telephony and email.
Treatment costs
The costs of treatment for international patients are calculated according to the medical fee schedule (GOÄ). The costs are billed via the private medical clearing center.
