After hours medical attention - answering service

There is an answering service in Munich (and throughout Bavaria) to connect you with medical attention after normal business hours. (The hours that the answering service is available vary somewhat from city to city, but generally covers evenings and weekends).
Most likely, you will need to be able to explain your medical problem to the operator in German. If you are unable to provide the necessary information in German, find a neighbor or friend who can help you. After describing your problem and giving your address, the service dispatches an on-call physician in your area to your home. The doctor is equipped to provide you with basic care and advice.
We have used this service on two occasions. One time was at 2:00 in the morning. In both instances, a doctor arrived at our home within 45 minutes of the call.
Note: This service should not be used in case of emergencies. In case of medical emergency, dial 112.
Phone: 01805-19 12 12
Phone calls are charged at 14 cents/min by Deutsche Telekom.
