Professor Kührer made an excellent impression. I was able to ask all my questions and received thorough answers. Thank you a lot! The second opinion was extremely helpful in guiding my treatment decisions. A second opinion is especially valuable when it comes from a specialist of Professor Kührer’s expertise.
I had an online consultation with OA Dr. Maya Thun regarding nodules on my right leg. Local doctors were unable to determine the cause, but Dr. Thun quickly diagnosed the condition as a side effect of antibiotics taken for an infection. She also noted my history of angina. Dr. Thun reassured me that the nodules should resolve on their own in 4-6 weeks. I'm grateful for her clear explanation and professional advice.
Dear MedicusUnion Team,
I'm pleased to inform you that my father is doing well postoperatively. We have continued his medication here in Bahrain, and I am happy to report that he is fine.
We truly appreciate the support and care provided by the doctor, the hospital, and the entire MedicusUnion team. Your assistance has made a significant difference in his recovery.
