Please note:
To protect patients and staff from COVID-19 infection, our practice is committed to personal safety and hygiene. This includes full and booster vaccinations of all staff members, daily SARS-CoV-2 Antigentests of all staff members, FFP2 masks and hand disinfection for all staff and patients, air purification equipment, additional protective measures during physical examinations and continuous surface disinfection.
As an appointment-based practice, we can also ensure that there is only one patient in the waiting room at any given time.

Mandatory documents
The Robert Koch Institute provides the following updated two documents in English mandatory for each and every vaccination appointment: Information sheet and declaration of consent for preventive vaccination against COVID-19. You can find these (in one file) following this link.
Please take note of the current rules pertaining to the entry into Germany, including if applicable Corona testing, a mandatory online registration at www.einreiseanmeldung.de and home quarantine. Further information in English is available here.
There are designated categories of Corona risk areas: “areas of variant of concern”, “high risk areas”. An updated overview of Corona risk areas is to be found here.
The health authorities and others have set up corona test centers to relieve the workload of general practitioners. Therefore, we do not carry out corona tests in our pratice.
Persons with suspected infections and travelers returning from a designated Corona risk area can be tested with a PCR test at numerous testing facilities:
Individuals with symptoms:
Individuals with and without symptoms:
Individuals without symptoms (travellers and those having had contact with an infected person):
We strongly recommend a second PCR test 5 - 7 days after the first test to reliably exclude a COVID-19 infection.
An updated overview of facilities offering PoC antigenetests (rapid tests) can be found at Corona-Bürgerteststellen in Hessen.
Information by Robert Koch Institut on home quarantine in 15 languages can be found here.
Where appropriate, we offer video consultations. We carry out these sessions with a certified service provider that meets the requirements for technical security and data protection (as stipulated in Annex 31b of the German Federal Medical Association's Medical Service Agreement). Patients that require consultation via video will need a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a camera, a microphone and a loudspeaker. A compatible web browser must be used (Chrome, Firefox or Safari). Please note that other browsers are currently not secure and cannot be used. After obtaining your consent and scheduling an appointment, we will send you the necessary access code for the consultation.
