House call doctor for children in Munich.
From the planned launch on 1 November 2026, an English- or German-speaking general practitioner can come to your sick child at home — for children aged 3 and older — with mobile diagnostic equipment and without the waiting-room infection risk. This is acute primary care, not paediatric-specialist care: for infants and toddlers under 3, or for routine well-child checks and the statutory childhood immunisation schedule, please see a paediatrician (Facharzt für Kinder- und Jugendmedizin). For life-threatening paediatric emergencies: call 112.

What we do not provide.
We do not provide U-Untersuchungen (well-child checks — U1 to U11). These are paediatric-specialist statutory check-ups and should be booked with a permanent paediatrician.
We do not provide the full statutory childhood immunisation schedule. For routine vaccinations (e.g. MMR, 6-in-1) please see your paediatrician. We can provide certain acute/catch-up vaccinations after case review.
No travel medicine for children. For pre-travel vaccinations (yellow fever, etc.), please see a travel clinic.
No tetanus vaccination on site. For acute tetanus-prone wounds, we refer you to the nearest emergency department for immediate vaccination.
No e-prescriptions (the German Kinder-eRezept pathway currently runs only through permanent paediatric practices). We issue private (Privatrezept) prescriptions on paper.
