Patients admision
The patient is admitted to the clinic after examination by his or her physician, who, depending on the diagnosis he / she makes, determines whether the patient needs hospitalization. If the treating physician is not a clinician, he should inform the physicians of the clinic of the reasons for admission to the clinic, the condition, the history and the treatment of the patient.
The clinic does not have an emergency department and therefore, before your admission you should contact the clinic or its physicians to be examined at the clinic or at home or even in the private clinic of the clinician or treating physician. (unless he is a clinician).
Please know and inform as soon as possible the medical and nursing staff about the medication you may have received or received in the last trimester, as well as any allergies you may have.
We recommend that you bring along your necessary clothing and personal hygiene products.
The office staff will assist you in filling out all the necessary forms, explain the entry process and, after arranging your insurance coverage (if applicable), will accompany you to your room.

Visiting Hours are between: 10.00 -14.00 and between: 17.00- 20.00 .
Please ask your friends and family to not visit in case they have a cold or any other contagious conditions.
