Landstuhl Regional Medical Center

LRMC is a huge Army hospital that military families from all over Germany may at some point use. My husband happens to work there so it is very conveniently located for us. So far I have had numerous Family Practice and Pediatric appointments as well as gallbladder surgery at LRMC. I have had great experiences thus far. The only negatives I have encountered have been wait times. The pharmacy takes forever. Just yesterday I had to wait almost an hour for my number to be called to pick up baby tylenol. There are many groups with different priorities and active duty in uniform almost always get through the fastest. This can be very frustrating when you have been there for 30 minutes with a sick baby and someone comes in wearing their uniform and is called immediately. However the service is good when you finally get it and I can't really complain about free medicine. If you need specialty care while living in Germany it is very likely you will end up at LRMC. If I have negative (or exceptionally positive) experiences in the future I will definitely update. :)
