Dr. Kürsten
Your ENT on Opernring

Almost all of my patients will be surprised that I am recording this here, but the exceptions are piling up, so I will briefly summarize: A referral for therapy (physio, speech therapy, etc.), a prescription for remedies require an examination and may/may not simply be "ordered". And please do not be disappointed if I do not issue referrals on request ("I would like to have a lab, Rötgen etc."). On the one hand, I am legally obligated not to burden the health care system with unnecessary costs, and I also only order examinations that make medical sense. Google does not replace medical studies ;-) A sick note requires an examination and cannot be requested by phone or email. Prescriptions cannot be issued without an exam. In individual cases, I can issue prescriptions and orders as part of ongoing treatment without a new examination. Please understand that this service , which saves you a visit to the doctor, is not provided free of charge. Thank you for your understanding
