Nuremberg Hospital North, North Hospital

Everything went so fine and much better than Fürth Klinikum , i was checked by doctor in 10 minutes, in Fürth klinikum i waited 3 hours for nothing . But, The guy who was in information office, in left side, around 18h . Is an idiot . Otherwise i would give 5 stars.

Weitgehend gut organisiert! Gut geschulte Pflegekräfte. Fachlich kompetente Ärzte. Wie in vielen Krankenhäusern könnte die interne Kommunikation und der Patiententransport verbessert werden!

Last week i visited here. Good doctors and they speak English ☺️ If you have some emergency go to house number 20

was visiting nuremberg with a family friend from there (roman skoracki, plastic surgeon, OSU medical center) and when i felt viral symptoms i was driven to there for 36 hour observation. the staff spoke gut englisch (ich spreche gut deutsch zu) and i got nice muffins, biscuits, and chips every morning. overall i enjoyed it

I had a very horrible experience with klinikum Nord. I reached the Notaufnahme one night after 11 pm after experiencing an unusual chest pain and breathlessness for the first time in my life. I lay in the emergency department the whole night till morning (more than 7 hours) without a physician checking me. I was initially very rudely welcomed by a female nurse because I didnt understood her German language completely. I am myself a doctor having worked in multiple countries and I had expected that the Personal in this hospital know that Chest pain and breathlessness in a young person is an emergency even if my blood shows 98% oxygen saturation and my initial Troponin levels and Ekg are normal. The nurse on duty stated rudely that I have a normal oxygen saturation as if I was putting on an act that I had breathlessness. I am a trained physician and I know that oxygen levels in blood fall very late. Then I was put in a room to wait for the doctor. I kept walking in the room the whole night restlessly because lying down increased my shortness of breath and anxiety. No doctor or nurse came to check my condition. What kind of an emergency department is this? If you've lived in countries like UK or even India or China, a doctor should at least have a first look at a breathless patient within 1 hour. What if it's an Asthma attack or a myocarditis or a pulmonary embolism ? I thankfully didnt had none of these but a patient with chest pain and shortness of breath can die if you just leave him in an empty room. I waited 7 hours thinking the emergency is maybe full of patients with more severe problems. There weren't many. I finally told the nurses that I need my blood and ecg reports so that I can see for myself if I have something serious. I was refused my own reports. Then at 6 a.m in the morning came a doctor who asked a few questions, then realised that they should have repeated the cardiac enzymes as a follow up. As a myocarditis or ischaemia can have initially normal blood levels. I needed to make him realise that. Then started the x ray and blood test after 7-8 hours. Then the doctor had feierabend and left. Then came a new doctor at 9 a.m in the morning who said everything is okay. What about my symptoms ? They were not at all reduced and I couldn't lie down because of breathlessness. I never had such symptoms nor do I have psychosomatic issues. She came up with absurd diagnosis like muscular pain etc. I asked her how she could rule out a cardiac cause without Echocardiography. She said we dont have a cardiology deparment in klinikum Nord and I should visit a cardiology praxis. I then waited till 10 a.m for an Arztbrief and finally left the hospital without a diagnosis or a treatment of my complaints. I called up all cardiology praxis in Nuremberg and the earliest termin was after 1.5 Months. Klinikum Nuremberg must seriously consider training their doctors to handling emergency situations. The doctors duty is to diagnose and treat the patients complaints and not spend hours writing long Arztbriefs saying we excluded this and this disease and did so and so tests.
