So weit ich die fachliche Kompetenz beurteilen kann, möchte ich das Alfried Krupp Krankenhaus loben und empfehlen - die Ärzte scheinen engagiert und bisher konnten meine Probleme gelöst werden. Allerdings ist dieses Krankenhaus keine Anlaufstelle für Menschen mit schwachen Nerven; selbst mit Terminen habe ich mich an manchen Tagen bis zu sechs Stunden dort aufhalten müssen. Das Zeitmanagement ist (vor allem in der Ambulanz) wirklich mangelhaft. Die Räumlichkeiten sind wiederum sehr gepflegt und das Ambiente angenehm, finde ich.

Hatte über dieses Krankenhaus nur Gutes gehört. Als ich selber im August/September 2019 eine Behandlung in der Neurologie beanspruchen wollte, erfuhr ich leider genau das Gegenteil. Rückrufe wurden nicht eingehalten, Unterlagen gingen verloren. Letztlich habe ich mich dann gegen eine Behandlung in diesem Krankenhaus entschieden. Gestern dann wurde ich von der Klinik anrufen. Ich hätte einen MRT-Termin nicht einhalten. Der beim Professor geplante Termin würde deshalb auch nicht stattfinden. Beide Termin hatte ich bereits im August / September 2019 abgesagt. Damals hat sich das Krankenhaus dafür noch für die Absage bedankt. Meine Unterlagen sind nun auch wieder da.Ich habe den Eindruck die entsprechenden Personen extrem überfordert/ überlastet sind .Macht überhaupt keinen guten Eindruck!

Super engagiertes und sympathisches Pflegepersonal auf der HNO-Station des Krupp Krankenhauses, die mir mit ihrer immer ruhigen und persönlichen Betreuung meinen Aufenthalt viel leichter gemacht haben. Auch wenn natürlich nicht gerne wieder, gerne wieder. Danke!

Jedes Mal muss man stundenlang warten trotz Termin. Die Behandlung dauert meistens keine 5 min. Häufig sind wechselnde Ärzte die die nachuntersuchengen durchführen und demnach keine genauen Angaben ob sich der Zustand verändert hat. Gerade die männlichen jungen Ärzte sind arrogant, rabiat und unverschämt. Trotzdem man wegen Taubheit regelmäßig in der hno Abteilung ist wird mit der Wand geredet und geflüstert. Würde ich mein Partner nicht begleiten würde er nicht mitbekommen wenn er aufgerufen wird und diagnosen hätte er auch nicht mitbekommen.

I was treated for five days in this hospital. All the staff has a high level of scientific knowledge and is very successful in treating patients by transmitting positive emotions and moral support. I will also note the punctuality and professionalism in this entire huge hospital. Thank you very much and I wish you success.
