Dear children, teenagers, and parents

We worked hard last year and were in the practice for you for an average of 10 hours a day. We are proud to have answered 20 percent of your medical inquiries by e-mail and telephone, saving you valuable time, travel and effort.

Did you know that, contrary to what the word “cold” might suggest, the more frequent infections during the colder season are not caused by the low temperatures, but rather by spending more time indoors with other people? We are aware that our practice is cramped and therefore ask that only one person accompanies the child.

The numbers of seasonal infections such as influenza and RSV have recently started to rise. You can still book appointments for the flu vaccination (influenza) online until January. Almost all our baby patients born from April 2024 have been vaccinated against the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by now. Please contact us immediately if your baby still needs to be vaccinated.

In the interests of our environment, we would like to encourage you to travel by public transport. If this is not possible, please check the parking facilities around the practice before you arrive.

We wish you a cozy winter time!

Dr. med. Martin Rössler & Dr. med. Meryem Hosse

Please do not park on our neighbors’ private spots or in front of their garages. Whenever our patient parking left from the entrance is full, you can find public parking lanes downhill, along the left side of Paradiesstrasse (starting at the blue hydrant, please don’t block entrances). Alternatively, you can find marked spots in Mönchhofstrasse. Thank you!

Our practice participates in a pilot project operated by Intonate GmbH which enables automatic discussion transcripts of consultations. This frees up time on our side to focus better on our patients. In this first phase, we can test and help to shape the new system. This is why it is possible that we ask you whether you allow us to run this system in the background while we conduct our consultation. We would appreciate your consent very much, and can reassure you that the confidentiality of the collected data will be granted at all times.

You can often reduce your health insurance premiums by up to 15% by opting into the family doctor model (“Hausarztmodell”). Through our membership in the ZimDoc medical network, we entered into family doctor contracts with many health insurers.
