What the Verified badge does and does not say

Verified says one thing only: a real person stands behind this profile and manages it themselves. YabInfy does not check anyone's certificates, licences, experience or competence, and the badge is not for sale. Doctors here belong to the Ärztekammer Nordrhein, and the district office covering you is the one for the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis, not the Köln office.

Referrals, and the thing called the quarter

German outpatient care runs on calendar quarters, and that has a practical consequence almost nobody explains to you at the start.

The referral your GP writes is valid for the quarter it was issued in. If you hold on to it and your specialist appointment falls into the next quarter, the referral no longer works and you need a fresh one. So book the appointment as soon as you have the form, and if the appointment lands months away, tell the GP's practice so they can write you a new one nearer the date.

For a GP, a gynaecologist or an eye doctor you usually need no referral at all and can book directly.

Distance here means distance to Köln

Bergisch Gladbach sits directly against Köln, and many people who live here work and shop there. The list of doctors here is small, and restricting your search to the town boundary makes little sense.

The good news is that both places fall under the same medical chamber, so going into Köln changes nothing administratively. Your referral, your prescriptions and your records all work the same way. The only thing that changes is travel time, so weigh that against how many times you will actually have to go.

Questions that only apply here

• Does this specialty need a referral, and how long is the form valid?
• Are they taking new publicly insured patients?
• If the follow-up happens in Köln, will they accept those records and results here?
• Where is the nearest on-call practice outside opening hours? Ask once and write it down somewhere.
• YabInfy checks none of this, so ask for it yourself, and ask to see the document where it matters.

If this group is not big enough for you

Köln holds the largest set of Persian-speaking doctors in North Rhine-Westphalia and is close, so it is the natural next step. Look at the other cities in the state on this site too, and phone before travelling to ask whether they are taking new patients. That one question saves more of your time than any amount of searching.

Reviews and privacy

Nothing about looking is recorded. Browsing this list leaves no trace anyone can see, and we never show who approached which doctor. If you write a review it is published under the name you gave, and nothing else is.

A useful review covers what can be observed: the wait for an appointment, whether the practice ran to time, how reception treated you, and whether the doctor explained things to the end. A patient cannot assess whether a diagnosis was correct, and where there is doubt, a second medical opinion is the answer.
