How to Choose a Doctor in a Small Medical Center: Benefits and Features

Choosing a doctor is an important decision, especially when living in a smaller town like Uffenheim. Many patients value the personalized care provided in a medical center, where communication between doctor and patient occurs on an equal footing. This type of healthcare facility typically fosters a closer relationship between patients and doctors. A family doctor in such a center not only knows the medical history of their patients but can also offer personalized recommendations for prevention and treatment.

In our new medical center, patients benefit from a wide range of services tailored to the needs of the local community. The doctors and medical staff generally have more time to focus on the individual needs of each patient. When looking for a family doctor, you should consider how well the doctor can build a personal connection and involve you in your healthcare decisions.

Another advantage of a smaller medical center is shorter waiting times. In many cases, patients can secure an appointment more quickly, which is particularly important for non-urgent but still significant health concerns.

Why Is Prevention Important?

Prevention plays a crucial role in maintaining your health. Regular check-ups allow potential health problems to be identified early and treated effectively. Our new medical center in Uffenheim is dedicated to making your preventive care as comfortable and comprehensive as possible.

Prevention Instead of Treatment

Early detection can save lives. Many diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, or cancer, often develop unnoticed over years. With regular check-ups at your family doctor, you can ensure that health risks are identified early.

Our team will support you in creating a personalized prevention plan tailored to your specific needs, helping you stay healthy longer and maintain your quality of life.

Which Preventive Examinations Are Important?

Depending on your age, gender, and family medical history, there are various preventive examinations you should consider:

  • General Health Check: Ideal for monitoring blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other key health indicators.
  • Cancer Screening: Tailored to the most common types of cancer.
  • Vaccinations: An essential measure to prevent infectious diseases.

At AZU Uffenheim, we offer all these services under one roof to make your preventive care as straightforward as possible.

Your Health Matters to Us

Prevention is not only a medical necessity but also an investment in your future. Take advantage of regular appointments with your family doctor. Together, we can sustainably protect your health.

Our AZU Medical Center Uffenheim Has Opened!

We are delighted to present our new AZU Medical Center Uffenheim. During the open house event, we warmly welcomed numerous interested visitors, many of whom took the opportunity to register as patients on the spot.

The opening of the AZU is the result of an intensive planning process and the dedication of many individuals. Until our move to the new premises on Wiesenstraße is complete, we are temporarily located in the former Heiligenfeldklinik practice building. However, our central goal remains unchanged: to ensure modern and comprehensive medical care for the region, actively promoting quality of life in rural areas.

We are particularly proud of our dedicated and experienced medical team:

  • Julian Zeilner, Medical Director: Dr. Zeilner is a specialist in general medicine with numerous additional qualifications, including emergency medicine, basic psychosomatic care, a diploma in alpine medicine, and DIVI intensive care transport. He also holds radiology expertise for emergency diagnostics. With his broad expertise and commitment, he makes a significant contribution to ensuring high-quality care at the AZU Medical Center.
  • Wolfgang Barz: Many Uffenheim residents may already know Dr. Barz from his previous work as a local general practitioner. He is a specialist in general medicine with an additional certification in palliative medicine and continues to serve as an active emergency physician. Dr. Barz brings not only his extensive experience but also a deep connection to the region to our team.

Our practice is equipped with modern facilities and the latest medical technology to provide you with optimal care. The positive feedback and strong support during our open house have reinforced our mission.

We extend special thanks to the city of Uffenheim, our mayor Wolfgang Lampe, and everyone involved in making this project a reality.

We look forward to welcoming you to our medical center—your health is our priority!
