Family Practice Dr. Katrin Schäfer | Specialist in General Medicine

Additional title Manual Therapy | Model project Prevention of Violence against Women

Our practice is open to everyone. We love our profession and are happy to be there for you. We are open to your problem and try to help you immediately. It is our aim to give every patient the time they need for a thorough examination of their problem.

There is not always a definitive solution immediately. Further examinations and treatments or even referrals to other specialists / psychologists or the arrangement of physiotherapy / occupational therapy and/or speech therapy may be necessary. This means that sometimes an initially recognized issue can turn out to be a completely different one over the course of time.
