List of English speaking paediatricians in Berlin

10/25/2014

Finding a good, English-speaking paediatrician (Kinderarzt) in your area is vital when having children. Berlin has a number of English-speaking paediatricians and I have put together a list of children's doctors that have been recommended by a number of readers and across the web. Like with my list of English speaking gynaecologists what one parent appreciates in a paediatrician can be different to another, so please keep this in mind when reading through the list.

We had a very positive experience with Dr. Abdallah Karajoli who has a clinic in Berlin Steglitz ( Schloßstrasse 112) and he is also twice per week in the Meoclinic (Friedrichstraße ) in Berlin - Mitte.
He is very good with the kids and explaining a lot! He speaks German, English and Arabic!

For an English speaking pediatrician we see Dr. med. Eike Milimonka in Lichtenrade. Most of the office is willing to try and speak English and reception is very nice, not to mention they remember my son's name.
