Try individual online consultations with women's health experts
A one-on-one consultation with our Femvie experts can be a great way to uncover the causes of your problems and finally achieve optimal health.
Although doctors do an irreplaceable job, due to full capacity, they only have a limited amount of time for each patient. In the allotted time, they may not be able to ask all the necessary questions about diet, psychological state, or lifestyle.
During the Femvie online consultation, we discuss everything in detail, which is why each one lasts approx. 90 min.+ and at times you will feel like you are the only one talking. In the office, there is no space for a doctor to go through all aspects of your lifestyle with you and recommend what you should focus on personally. However, our Femvie experts have the space to do this . After the consultation, you will not only receive general advice like through a photocopier, but written individual recommendations that will be in line with your current life.
