DURING BIRTH

Ich versuche diesen, für die Patientinnen so wichtigen Augenblick der Geburt zu planen und sie mit viel Sicherheit die Geburt erleben zu lassen. Es ist mir besonders wichtig, der werdenden Mutter eine Situation der Geborgenheit zu bieten, in der sie und ihr Partner, Hebamme und Arzt ein vertrautes Team bilden um das neue Leben willkommen zu heißen.

While the mother-to-be experiences the different phases of the birth process actively with the midwife and her partner, I take over the role of monitoring the birth progress, the exact medical support as well as the monitoring of the child's vital parameters.

In order to perfectly direct the birth process, I make careful decisions regarding the administration of oxytocic medication, pain medication or possibly also the carrying out of epidural anaesthetics if the mother-to-be asks for it.

Ultimately, in dangerous situations for both mother and child, I will actively take over the decision on surgical obstetric measures, such as cesarians or suction bells, and will carry these out for the wellbeing of mother and child.

Of course the medical monitoring of the mother after having delivered the baby as well as regular visits in hospital during the following days are part of my obstetric medical support.

Private births are possible at Privatklinik Goldenes Kreuz and at Privatklinik Döbling in Vienna.

I will of course advise you in time regarding the possibilities with national health insurances and private insurances.

NEWS

E-PRESCRIPTION

From July 1st 2023, medicines can be sent via e-prescription (independent of ELGA).

All persons insured in Austria can pick up their medication with a health insurance e-prescription at any Austrian pharmacy - but not at web/online pharmacies! Private prescriptions cannot be sent - they have to be collected at the practice.

As of July 1st 2023, the e-card must be inserted at the practice once per quarter so that the e-prescription is activated for 90 days.

Lab tests - procedure

After we received and checked the results we proceed as follows:

1. In case of an urgent result that is subject to treatment we contact you actively and communicate the necessary steps (therapy, appointment, prescription, ...).

2. If you have not heard of us within 2 weeks, you can be assured that your results do not require any further medical clarification or treatment. In this case, even if the result deviates from the reference range, we offer you to ask within your next regular appointment.

Currently we are not able to answer your e-mails regarding that matter due to high influx of e-mails. We kindly ask you for your understanding. Thank you.
