"Through a simple form, the patient can ask his or her question, of course of a medical nature, to a specific doctor at our hospital and he or she will answer it in the shortest possible time," says Luděk Pelikán, MD, director of the Hořovice Hospital. Since the average response time to an enquiry will be about 3 working days, it is obviously not possible to deal with acute difficulties in this way. There it is better to visit a doctor and undergo a professional examination.
The following specialties will be available:
Neonatology,
paediatrics,
orthopaedics,
surgery,
neurology,
gynecology,
internal medicine,
hematology,
rehabilitation,
radiology,
dentistry,
oncology,
otorhinolaryngology (ENT) and
If you are not sure which specialty your query falls under, you can use the General box and your query will then be forwarded to the specific doctor. Answers to questions will be sent to the email address you provide, but will also be posted on our website. In this way you will also be able to search if the same question has already been asked and save time.
And which questions can you ask in the Advice Centre? We asked the hospital director, MUDr. Pelikán, about this again. "You can ask basically anything in the medical field. We expect that our patients will be most interested in answers to questions about their health problems or their treatment, but through the Counselling Room it is also possible to ask about what to expect during a stay in our hospital or about specific procedures that are performed in our hospital.We believe that this service will be beneficial for our patients, will improve their information and will also help them to alleviate their fears about certain examinations or procedures," adds MUDr. Pelikán.
