For urgent but non-life-threatening medical situations (like minor ailments or health needs outside of regular office hours), you can call 116117 for the on-call doctor service (ärztlicher Bereitschaftsdienst). This line will direct you to a doctor on duty or advise if you need to go to a hospital. For life-threatening emergencies, you must call 112.
