Unfortunately, not even the 1 star is justified. My wife was immobilized with painkillers because of severe pain (herniated disc) in the spine area and sent back home. The appointments for the MRT were only 1 week later, then another 1 week waiting for the results to be discussed and one more week later the surgery appointment ( 3 weeks !! waited under severe pain). After the discharge, it did not take 4 days until it came to dizziness and disturbances of consciousness, as an emergency back to the hospital and there were no measures taken to the problem to get to the bottom of the problem.4 days with painkillers and Assumptions were fed up, (the doctor who had surgery was only seen on the 4th day) and sent back home. From April to December no solution was found and the problem with the dizziness was ignored (appointments with the psychologist were recommended). In December we found finally COMPETENT doctors who found the cause after a few examinations at short intervals. During the operation in the KSW, the nerve tissue was damaged in the area of the spinal column (a hole caused nerve fluid to enter the head and caused over-pressure and dizziness). Luckily we decided to go to a clinic not far away, because there was a 6-hour surgery, the botch fixed (incidentally, were still bone splinters and a break found cause of bungling performed surgery in the KSW). The defective discs were replaced and the spine was fixed and my wife was able to get up again after only 3 days and walk home one week later. The enlargement of the KSW brings nothing, if the specialists are missing and the treatment is so grottenschlecht.NIE AGAIN!
