Care for your child. Support for your family.

Four areas of care. One connected team.

A child’s health often involves more than one area of care. Physical symptoms, emotional well-being, development and eating habits can all be relevant. At Kinderpraxis GO, our team works across these areas to understand your child’s needs and coordinate care. General pediatrics, pediatric cardiology, child and adolescent psychiatry and nutrition counseling are all part of our practice.

Children’s hearts need specialist care that takes their age and development into account.

Both founders are pediatric cardiologists with many years of experience at university hospitals. Their experience informs both specialist assessments and routine pediatric care.

We offer ECGs, ambulatory ECG monitoring (Holter monitoring), exercise ECGs, echocardiograms (heart ultrasound scans) and blood pressure monitoring in our practice. If further hospital-based assessment is needed, we discuss the next steps with you.

Concerns about your child’s development, behavior or emotional well-being can be difficult to put into words. They can also affect everyday life for the whole family.

Our practice brings psychiatric and psychotherapeutic care into the same team as your child’s medical care. This makes it easier to share relevant information and consider different aspects of your child’s health together.

Support for children, adolescents and their families in Leimen and Schwetzingen

We take time to listen and explore what may be contributing to your child’s difficulties. Alongside symptoms, we consider their strengths, relationships and needs at home and at school.

Depending on your child’s needs, support may include diagnostic assessment, therapeutic sessions, guidance for parents and medication where appropriate. We work with you to agree on a suitable approach and explain the next steps. New patients: Please contact the practice before booking a first appointment for psychiatry or psychotherapy. Appointments for new patients require prior consultation with the therapist.

Eating can raise all kinds of questions for families. We offer support for concerns such as growth difficulties, overweight, food intolerances, elevated cholesterol and selective eating.

Our certified nutrition counselor is part of the practice team and works with our doctors. Advice is tailored to your child’s needs, with practical suggestions that fit your family’s everyday life.

We offer individual nutrition therapy. Your statutory health insurer may contribute to the cost under Section 43 of the German Social Code, Book V (SGB V). Please check the requirements and any contribution with your insurer before starting.

Routine checkups, vaccinations and care when your child is unwell are the foundation of our practice. We support children and adolescents as they grow, with time for questions about their health and development.

Our team gets to know your child and their medical history over time. When specialist input is needed, we can coordinate this within our team or arrange further assessment elsewhere.

Child and adolescent health checkups in Leimen and Schwetzingen Germany’s routine health checkups are known as U examinations for children and J examinations for adolescents. They assess health and development at different stages:

  • U1–U6: Newborn and infant health checkups
  • U7, U7a, U8 and U9: Early childhood health and development checkups
  • U10: An additional school-age health checkup
  • U11: An additional school-age health checkup
  • J1: An adolescent health checkup
  • J2: An additional adolescent health checkup
  • Pre-employment medical examinations for adolescents under the German Youth Employment Protection Act (JArbSchG)

Please ask us about the timing of individual checkups and insurance coverage for additional examinations.

Four areas, totally seamless.
That’s what sets us apart.

Clear information for the decisions that matter.

Whether you are arranging a routine checkup, seeking advice about a heart condition or concerned about your child’s development, you want to understand what comes next.

We listen to your concerns, explain our findings and discuss the options with you. Together, we work out the next steps for your child, including further assessment when needed.

Specialist care. Close collaboration.

More than a pediatric practice.

Kinderpraxis GO combines general pediatrics with pediatric cardiology, child and adolescent psychiatry and nutrition counseling. Our team works together to coordinate care, while online booking and digital forms help you prepare for your visit. 

Having several areas of care within one practice makes communication easier and can reduce the need for separate appointments elsewhere. 

Our approach is personal and practical: listen carefully, explain clearly and plan the next steps together.

Several areas of care in one practice.

Our doctors, therapists and nutrition counselor work together to consider your child’s needs from different perspectives. Where care outside the practice is needed, we help coordinate the next steps.

Making your visit easier.

Online booking and digital medical history forms help you prepare before you arrive. This gives our team useful information in advance and makes it easier to focus on your questions during the appointment.

Knowing what comes next.

We explain our findings and discuss a plan with you. If questions remain, we consider further assessment, follow-up or a different approach.

Spaces that welcome children.

Jungle, underwater and air: our three practices each have their own theme. The spaces are designed to give children something to explore and help families feel more comfortable during their visit.

Care, in their own words.

  • We travel 50 kilometers to see this doctor, and it is well worth it! I have never seen such a lovely, well-organized and well-equipped practice. We are delighted with the team and Dr. Oberle. Everyone is incredibly friendly.

    They have always been wonderful with the children: playful and very kind. You feel at ease, and everyone takes time for you.

    We would recommend them to anyone and would give more stars if we could!

Practice Management

Doctors

Our doctors bring different skills and perspectives to the team. They share their knowledge and work together to support children and families across our practice.

Medical Assistants and Support Team

A visit to the doctor involves more than the examination. Our team welcomes you, answers practical questions and helps your family through each stage of the visit. Their care and organization keep the practice running day to day.

Trainees

Our trainees are part of the team from day one. As they learn, they take on new responsibilities and contribute their own strengths. Experienced colleagues guide them, answer questions and help them build the confidence and skills they need for their work.

Hygiene and Housekeeping

Our housekeeping team takes care of the spaces children and families use every day. Their attention to cleanliness helps keep the practice welcoming and supports our hygiene standards.

Parental Leave

When colleagues take parental leave, they remain part of our team. We wish them well as they spend time with their growing families and work together to plan their return. Supporting one another also means making room for family life.
