The health care system in the Federal Republic of Germany is one of the worlds’ most sophisticated and advanced systems, the standard of care in hospitals is extremely high. Thus, German citizens have a high quality of living and longer survival rates.
International patients from abroad can benefit also from such a developed system too. That’s why yearly over 250 000 patients from more than 100 countries choose Germany for medical treatment destination. Experts are reporting that the number of medical tourists yearly continues to increase.
Let us discuss some reasons which make Germany among the world’s top destinations for international patients for medical tourism:
Medical staff e.g. doctors, nursing care personal, dietitians, etc. in all German hospitals and clinics are professionals and perfectly trained, all medical staff must go through extensive training before they are allowed to practice medicine. Thus, they are providing the up-to-dated medical treatments. Moreover, medical staff are educated themselves continuously to stay updated on the newest developments in their field by attending professional workshops and visiting the latest conferences.
No one likes to stay longer at the hospital because of medical treatment or diagnostics, using state-of-the-art medical technology and performing surgical operations by applying minimally invasive therapy is the remarkable advantages of the German hospitals. As a result, the patient obtains an accurate diagnosis or minimal suffering after performing the surgical operation.
Germany is known for its medical technology innovations and developments, clinical research and superior engineering in this field, that´s why all hospitals in Germany are equipped with the best medical technology and medical devices that allow them to provide patients with the latest treatments.
Compare to other countries, in German hospitals are available quick and easy procedures to meet the medical professor. Often, patients do not involve long waiting periods for medical diagnostics or admission to the hospital.
Germany is not the cheapest but significantly lower than other countries like the USA and the UK, German doctors strictly comply with the protocols and cost list. They do not prescribe unnecessary medical tests or drugs (Any kind of exploitation of the patient, exposes the doctor to severe fine), so the gap of costs between what German patients and what international patients pay for medical treatment or diagnosis is not significant. In many cases, international patients will be treated and charged as private German patients.
If you hesitate to obtain your medical treatment because of the language barrier, you are here wrong. Many of the German doctors and medical staff speak English and most of them can understand and communicate with you even if you do not speak English very well.
Germany is a very safe country. It does not matter by day or by night, in town or in the countryside, international patients can travel and move around freely. Crime and racism in Germany are not a topic one needs to be concerned about, with some rare incidents which could happen anywhere in the world.
Germany locates in the heart of Europe with fabulous nature, this location makes it one of the most beautiful places where people want to live, visit or study. Almost all international patients take these advantages to enjoy the German nature and to discover many European countries and visit many European cities you have been dreaming to explore without any restrictions with low cost and short time because of short destinations between them.
Particularly, international patients from the Arabic Countries need a few hours of flight to reach Frankfurt airport then less than 5 hours to reach any hospital within Germany.
