If you wish to fight back against discrimination when seeing a doctor, you can also contact the Medical Association or the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians of your Federal Land.

Until the new Stiftung Unabhängige Patientenberatung Deutschland (German foundation for independent patient consultations) is established, you can contact, for instance, the citizens’ hotline at the Federal Ministry of Health:
