Important notice
Dear patients,
Thank you for your interest and for your willingness to inform us about your health problem.
We would like to point out that we are unable to propose any diagnostic or therapeutic options WITHOUT a personal (usually outpatient) appointment.
A medical assessment based solely on written reports is not possible.
Therefore we ask you to make an inquiry only if you are willing to meet us personally.
Thank you very much for your understanding!
