It is run by a dedicated old-school doctor loved by every patient and perfectionist in patient-centered care. He sees most new patients and takes personal responsibility in all of them. Subsequently, his schedule is always very busy never leaving time to discussions and cooperation with collegues and staff.<\/p>\n<p>Team B and C are smaller and quietly running. There are a small group of doctors with individual tasks and smooth collaboration with nurses etc. The represent yesterday&#8217;s medicine and are traditional in every aspect.<\/p>\n<p>Team D is struggeling with a steady increase in number of patients and fixed number of staff, rooms and payments. The team develops the treatment through clinical studies which ensures the implementation of new treatments, new effective pathways of care and an always on the top patient satisfaction.
