Collaboration with colleagues

With respect to the mental and physical health of children and adolescents, it is sensible for specialists, therapists, and advisory associations to work hand in hand. Of course, collaboration and exchange requires the express consent of my patients and their families.

As a specialist for child and adolescent psychiatry, I place particular importance on maintaining a good network with pediatric practices as well as with specialized clinical institutions in Heidelberg and the entire Rhine-Neckar region. An interdisciplinary approach and a seamless consulting and treatment process often have a positive effect on the outlook of the therapy.

I look forward to a constructive professional exchange for the benefit of our child and adolescent patients and their families.

Dr. med. Katharina Schmidt

Minimal waiting time

Would you like to recommend specialist further treatment in my practice to the parents of a sick child or adolescent?

I am happy to work together with you as a referring physician. Whenever possible and if patients expressly agree, I communicate with you in person about the diagnosis and treatment of the young patients. Good interdisciplinary cooperation is very important to me. Provided that the families agree, you will receive a detailed therapy/examination report as referring physician.

Feel free to contact me if you are not sure whether referring your patient to my practice is advisable.

Prompt appointments

My private practice makes it possible to book appointments quickly for your patients. A letter of referral is not necessary.

For small children and patients in urgent need of treatment, it can be important that they receive an initial appointment without delay. This allows problems to be treated and identified early on, which can often prevent them from becoming chronic or worsening.
