My newborn son and I came here as he had some complications after the birth. The place is great for…read morenewborns, specially those with special care requirements. Mothers however are not looked after nor supported. I ended up having a hysteria after sleepless nights, lack of food and i also developed a cripping neckpain. My husband got us out and i went to an emergency at Auguste Viktoria Krankenhause. St Joseph's moto is to "force" mothers into breast-feeding, while not even checking if she is doing it right, if the nipples are ok etc. my son was sucking blood out of my nipples every 20 min. I gave up on breast-feeding, while i am sure I would have breast-fed if I was directed properly. I am now pregnant with our 2nd child and I am booking either West-end or Martin Luther hospital. Both are said to be great for babies and mothers.

Ein großartiges Team und ein außergewöhnlicher Arzt!…read more Ich möchte meine tiefste Dankbarkeit gegenüber Dr. Costas Tziouvas und seinem gesamten Team ausdrücken. Von der ersten Beratung bis zur Operation und Nachsorge habe ich mich jederzeit bestens betreut, verstanden und sicher gefühlt. Dr. Tziouvas ist nicht nur ein herausragender Fachmann, sondern auch ein Arzt mit großem Einfühlungsvermögen und Menschlichkeit. Ebenso möchte ich den Kolleginnen und Kollegen sowie dem gesamten medizinischen Team, einschließlich der liebevollen und engagierten Pflegekräfte, meinen herzlichen Dank aussprechen. Ihr alle habt mir das Gefühl gegeben, in den besten Händen zu sein. Dank euch war dieser Eingriff für mich viel leichter zu bewältigen, und ich bin überaus zufrieden mit dem Ergebnis. Ich kann Dr. Tziouvas und sein Team wärmstens weiterempfehlen und werde euch immer in bester Erinnerung behalten!

I was referred to go here a couple times for a women's health issue a few years ago. The staff here…read moreis very polite and patient. At the time I didn't speak a word of german and they found someone to help translate what the doctor was saying for me. The hospital food here is pretty good. The rooms are extremely comfortable and clean. I've always been placed in a double room (I have public insurance) but I've seen rooms for 3 or more. The rooms are also quiet and there is Wifi available. I would say my only issue was getting a second opinion. The doctor I was seeing seemed really reluctant to consider any of another doctor's opinion. If you need an appointment here for something the wait times are very short! The hospital is easily accessible by tram and is an 8 euro taxi ride from Prenz'l berg. I've never had to wait more than 1 hour for anything in the emergency room.

I came here for an MRI referred by a German doctor in the area. That was ten hours ago, and they…read morehave left a line in my vein that is very irritated and painful after hours of having it there for no reason. When I mentioned that this amount of pain is not normal, they told me that they cannot look at it/possibly replace it because it would be a waste of materials. I would non be surprised if I was here for more than 12 hours, and I anticipate leaving the hospital way sicker than I was when I arrived (and I arrived with a concussion...) I would give this place 0 stars if I could.

I came to the Charite Campus Mitte after an unsatisfactory diagnosis of my extremely painful…read morelumbar region in another hospital. Prof.Dr Peter Vajkoczy,medical director of neurosurgery, studied my previous MRT and then ordered a battery of tests - a new MRT, a CT and a device recording nerve responses to electrical impulses. Dr Vajkoczy's suspicion was confirmed. My pain was being caused by a pinched nerve in S1, a different segment than previously diagnosed. Prior to my minimally invasive operation I was given intensive care by a most capable staff. The operation itself was so successful that the excruciating pain had vanished as soon as I regained consciousness. I can only confirm that as far as I'm concerned the Charite's reputation as Germany's leading general hospital is wholly deserved. Leslie R.Colitt

Our experience with the SPZ was marked by significant difficulties in both the diagnostic and…read moremedical care process. Our son already had a confirmed autism diagnosis, issued by a multidisciplinary team after a three-month stay at a day clinic (Tagesklinik). Despite this diagnosis and his ongoing need for medical support (including the use of prescription psychiatric medication), our son was seen only once by a doctor at the SPZ over a period of eight months. No further appointments were offered during that time - neither for medication monitoring, clinical observation, nor for any additional diagnostic evaluation. No physical examinations or neurological assessments were carried out. The psychological assessment was based on very limited observations, without any continuous clinical follow-up. In our view, there was a lack of sufficient objective basis. Nevertheless, a medical-psychological report was issued that questioned the existing diagnosis, without clarifying how limited the doctor's actual contact with our child had been. What we found particularly concerning was that this very report was sent to the Youth Welfare Office (Jugendamt) and used to justify far-reaching measures - including a possible inpatient placement outside the family home. In our opinion, neither our child's living situation, medical history, nor the information provided by the parents was adequately taken into account. The report was based almost exclusively on feedback from the school. There were also serious language barriers, as no interpreter was made available to us during the entire process. Important aspects of school life and serious incidents (such as physical aggression and discrimination) were not mentioned or documented in the report. From our perspective, our child's well-being was not appropriately prioritized, and his medical needs were not handled with the necessary care. Based on this experience, we advise other families to proceed with caution when choosing a center for diagnostic assessment and care - especially when the child already has a complex medical history and is on ongoing medication.

Highly recommended if your need a knee operation! I experienced some long waits for appointments…read morebut all the staff, Drs, nurses, porters, physiotherapist... were all great, friendly and knowledgeable! Hospital was clean, with a nice hospitality including a lengthy food menu.

So I can't really vouch for the quality of care here... not firsthand anyway. I do know someone who…read morewas at the Tagesklinik and found the program beneficial and the attention very specialized. As for the campus itself? Beautiful. It's grassy and shady, gorgeous red brick buildings, and more. If the atmosphere is as crucial to recovery as I think it is, then hanging out here is not a bad idea. The grounds are great for walking around or having a picnic when you are visiting people here. Just avoid the cafeteria at all costs...
