The waiting area is reminiscent of an airline's business class lounge.
The design is minimalist chic, the paintings on the wall valuable contemporary art.
There are dishes from the finest caterer, a selection of teas for connoisseurs, luxury bathrobes and silk pajamas to take away, plus stuffed animals for the little ones.
But this is not the relaxation room of a 5-star spa, but the waiting room of a doctor's practice.
More precisely: the practice of a so-called “concierge doctor”.
Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the “Concierge Doctor Groups” have literally sprung up in many parts of the country. They can hardly cope with the rush of patients. Luxury supplementary health insurance is currently the ultimate status symbol, and not just among Hollywood stars and political celebrities. Hollywood stars like Sienna Miller enjoy the benefits as well as Sting, Bono and Ralph Lauren.
