Injections

We give injections when a deficiency is proven or the treatment is medically justified.

• Vitamin B12 injections
• Vitamin D injections
• Treatment of acute pain within family medical care

Wounds and minor procedures

• Wound care and dressing changes
• Suture removal
• Assessment of small abscesses
• Other minor procedures that can be done safely under the practice's conditions

When we refer you on

If a treatment cannot be done safely in the practice, we tell you openly and refer you to the right specialist or to hospital.

Frequently asked questions

• How long does an iron infusion take?

  That depends on the product. Besides the infusion itself, plan time for the preliminary talk and the observation afterwards. You will learn more when booking.

• Do I need a blood test first?

  For iron and vitamins, usually yes: we treat a deficiency only once it is proven. Often the values already exist – please bring them.

• Does health insurance pay for the treatment?

  Medically necessary treatments are usually covered. For services you would have to pay for yourself, we discuss the costs with you beforehand.
