Philosophy
Every patient wants the best possible treatment, but how is a patient who is looking for information, in Germany or abroad, supposed to know which specialists are genuine experts in their field? The Leading Medicine Guide shows patients from anywhere in the world where to find the leading medical specialists in the German-speaking world.
As the first communication platform for Germany’s top physicians, the Leading Medicine Guide showcases the crème de la crème of outstanding specialists within the German medical care sector. This enables the Leading Medicine Guide to close an information gap and act as an intermediary between patients in Germany and abroad seeking information and leading medical specialists, with the aim of providing information about the best possible medical care to all patients, both nationally and internationally, and thus ensuring greater transparency in the high performance sector of medical care.
Quality
The doctors listed in the Leading Medicine Guide were determined by the editors of the Leading Medicine Guide, jointly with the medical advisers and co-operative partners in the media and the skilled Leading Medicine network, by means of intensive research and comprehensive surveys of doctors and patients. The Leading Medicine Team consists of highly qualified staff with many years of experience in the health sector. High-grade information is thereby assured.
Only doctors and their medical facilities with many years of experience in medicine, state of the art diagnostic and surgical procedures, a modern infrastructure, professional quality management, and participation in certification measures are entered in the Leading Medicine Guide. In addition to analysis of the results collected, the admissions procedure includes intensive personal discussions with the doctors selected and managers of chosen medical facilities and an on-site visit. Moreover, the network effect involves an internal monitoring function of individual members. If some medical experts are not included, please contact us for support. Further German medical experts are shown in the expanded list of doctors, without detailed information.
We should like to point out here that the fact that other doctors and clinics are not included in the Leading Medicine Guide does not mean that they are not equally medical experts.
Network effect
The Leading Medicine Guide unites up to 150 selected clinics and doctors from various medical disciplines in a single communication platform. With their specialized offers of above-average quality in medicine, nursing care and infrastructure, the clinics listed in the Leading Medicine Guide have positioned themselves among the top clinics.
The Leading Medicine Guide is a common platform for positioning high quality medical specialized services on offer not only on German but also on international health markets. By means of the joint approach, a network of highly qualified doctors for strengthening the German health sector is created.
Media partners
Since its inception, the Leading Medicine Guide has worked closely with well-known media partners. This underpins the idea of transparent medicine for the area of top quality medical care. As a consequence, the search for experts is published as a service by selected media partners. Initially, the Leading Medical Guide is fully published by spiegel.de, FAZ.NET, manager-magazin.de and morgenpost.de.
