We review submitted patient reviews for compliance with our guidelines. The criteria are authenticity, appropriateness and compliance with our privacy policy. Assessments with the label «verified rating» have been confirmed by the patient with a mobile number. This gives you greater trustworthiness.
We do not offset patient ratings entered online with other quality indicators. The patient feedback therefore does not influence the scores or the ranking of the hospitals / clinics on our leaderboards. We present the feedback, which does not violate our guidelines, as we have received it. We kindly ask you to carefully consider to what extent these ratings are important for your choice of hospital.

The surgeon "hit it too hard" resulting in a fissure in the femur (TEP). Furthermore, had an ISG blockage during surgery, which, however, was not diagnosed in the Schulthess by either the assistant doctor or the professor. I couldn't sit or walk for months.
About the surgery:
Hip TEP, fissure, leg length discrepancy, massive ISG problems after surgery. In addition, they were no longer interested in my problems after the responsible surgeon changed positions. Professor never responded to my attempts to contact him and I was put off till the annual check-up (surgeon: Dr. Maduz Prof. Rüdiger)

There is a doctor who did not take me seriously. I had to fill in a pain report for several days and he did not even look at it. In addition, he did not consider it necessary to give me a doctor's certificate (I'm a nursing assistant). I went in with crutches and out with pain. A pity!!
