I have a chronic condition and need a doctor comfortable with non‑German speakers.
Where can I find a general practitioner that speaks English?

Cottbus has several medical practices where doctors offer services in English, particularly those located near the university medical faculty and in central neighborhoods. The city’s health department maintains a directory of physicians, including language skills, which can be accessed online. You can also consult expatriate forums or the local foreign‑resident advisory office for personal recommendations. When contacting a practice, ask directly about language capabilities and whether they accept your health insurance plan.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Cottbus.
