Help us to help

What can I do? In view of the terrible pictures from Ukraine, many people are asking themselves this question at the moment. This is especially true for medical practitioners, for whom helping is both an obligation and a calling. YourMediCall offers you an easy way to be there for people from Ukraine: from your workplace, via audio call, email, live chat or video call, simply as part of your daily practice routine.
“As a doctor with direct experience in conflict zones, I have seen that access to medical care is one of the first things to suffer. As part of YourMediCall, we have joined forces sharing a common goal: to provide people in areas of conflict and crisis with medical and psychological consultation quickly and easily.”
Prof. Dr. Sascha Flohé
Specialist in orthopedics and trauma surgery

FAQs

YourMediCall is a joint project of various German partners and companies. The initiator is Prof. Dr. Thomas Hackländer, renowned specialist, radiologist and expert in telemedicine, who founded a corresponding company with the “Institut für Telematik in der Medizin GmbH”.

Prof. Dr. Hackländer is supported in his work for YourMediCall by a team of medical professionals. YourMediCall is a specially founded non-profit entrepreneurial company (gUG) and does not pursue any economic goals. Everyone involved is working on the project free of charge.

No, since the project is not funded in any way, everyone involved works on a voluntary basis. This also applies to the doctors and their advice to Ukrainian patients.

In order to be able to offer medical care at the highest level, we need information about your qualifications. The relevant questionnaire can be submitted via our portal and will be reviewed by Prof. Dr. Hackländer and his team.

Since the advice is given in English, Ukrainian or Russian, appropriate language skills must be available.

In principle, physicians of all disciplines with a focus on general practitioners, pediatricians and psychologists.

With regard to patients, YourMediCall sees itself as the first point of contact for medical/psychological advice. The aim is to get an initial picture of the patient and to discuss further steps with them. In addition, we would also like to support Ukrainian doctors who work under the most difficult conditions and may have insufficient know-how in treating injuries typical of war.

Unfortunately, this is not possible via these channels. On request, however, we can try to establish contact with an appropriate doctor on site.
