Beschrijving

The source presents an excerpt from Dr. Michael Koch's diary, detailing his experiences as a patient in Germany. He initially recounts his fond memories of his eccentric but beloved former ophthalmologist, Dr. Bernhard Melanik, highlighting Melanik's unconventional approach to patient care and eventual retirement due to illness and the pandemic. The narrative then shifts to Dr. Koch's new ophthalmologist, Dr. Jutta van Guntersblum, whose extreme and persistent hypochondriacal COVID-19 precautions stand in stark contrast to her alarming lack of basic hand hygiene during examinations. This ironic situation leads to Dr. Koch contracting a bacterial infection after an appointment, prompting his cynical decision to self-medicate prophylactically following future visits. The text concludes with Dr. Koch's reflections on the absurd reality of the situation and his preference for international medical practice over the German system.
