Shared-practice arrangement for physicians
Work independently, without starting alone.
If you want to work independently in outpatient care without building rooms, reception and digital workflows from scratch, a shared-practice arrangement can be a cleanly separated model. At Grüneburgweg 12 in Frankfurt’s Westend, independent practices share a framework, aim to complement one another in medical care and have room for further specialties.
- Own practice authorization (Zulassung)
- Own billing
- Shared infrastructure
- Separate patient records
Legal form
What a shared-practice arrangement is, and what it is not.
In short
What defines your practice stays separate: authorization, billing, records. What supports it is shared: rooms, team, technology.
A shared-practice arrangement (Praxisgemeinschaft) is not a joint professional practice (Gemeinschaftspraxis). You run your own practice with your own practice authorization (Zulassung), your own billing, your own patient records and your own decisions.
Rooms, reception, team, equipment, appointment scheduling and digital infrastructure are shared. Legally, the decisive point is that there is no joint billing and no shared patient identity.
That makes collaboration organisationally closer, while medically and legally the practices remain separate.
Outpatient work
The paths into outpatient work.
What to base it on
Three questions decide it: how much do you want to decide yourself, how much do you want to invest — and how much structure should already be in place?
Outpatient work can grow out of hospital work, employed work in a medical care center (MVZ), participation by a statutory contract physician (Vertragsarzt) in an MVZ, a solo practice, a joint professional practice arrangement (Berufsausübungsgemeinschaft) or a shared-practice arrangement.
Each model distributes independence, risk, investment, administration and team differently. The shared-practice arrangement is one option among several if you want to decide independently while using existing infrastructure.

The site
Grüneburgweg 12 and Bockenheimer Landstraße 33.
The practice center has been based in Frankfurt’s Westend since 2019 and at Grüneburgweg 12 since 2025: nine specialties under one roof, plus a second location at Bockenheimer Landstraße 33, also in the Westend.
The site brings together general medicine, internal medicine, ENT, gynecology, urology, neurology, physiotherapy, psychotherapy and surgery. There are also external collaborations in cardiology, ophthalmology and physiotherapy.
Both addresses in the Westend
Grüneburgweg 12 is at Grüneburgweg U-Bahn station (U1/U2/U3/U8), Bockenheimer Landstraße 33 at Westend station (U6/U7).
9 specialties
Several practices and therapeutic services under one roof.
2 addresses
Grüneburgweg 12 and Bockenheimer Landstraße 33, both in Frankfurt’s Westend.
Collaborations
Cardiology, ophthalmology and physiotherapy are connected externally.
Infrastructure
What is shared.
The things that support day-to-day practice are shared: reception, telephone, appointment scheduling, lab, equipment, team and languages.
The team takes calls, organises registration and appointments, and knows the workflows and locations. German, English, French, Spanish and Russian are spoken on site.
We clarify at the start, openly and transparently, which specialist equipment you need yourself and how the shared costs are distributed.
What you bring yourself
Your specialty-specific equipment and your own billing system. The organisational foundation is already in place.
Reception
Registration, telephone and first contact during day-to-day operations.
Appointment scheduling
Central workflows with digital booking and a well-practised organisation.
Lab and equipment
Existing diagnostics and equipment where they fit the respective specialty.
Team and languages
A team with experience on site and multilingual communication.
Digital workflows
Digital across the whole patient journey.
The digital workflow runs from first contact through appointment, registration, findings, follow-up and communication to aftercare.
The advantage is the continuous process: organisational information is available where it is needed, and workflows are already established in daily work.
Record keeping remains separate for each practice. The infrastructure is shared, not patient data.
Already established
The workflows have been running on site for years. You join an established organisation instead of building it.
Who we are looking for
Medicine that complements the site.
We are looking for colleagues who want to work independently and whose medicine complements care delivery on site.
If you feel your specialty fits the site, get in touch. There is no fixed list — what matters is the professional conversation.
Complementary specialty
Medicine that is not yet represented on site or meaningfully extends the existing range.
Independent work
Own practice authorization, own billing, own decisions — within shared infrastructure.
First step
A conversation, then a morning on site. Both are non-binding.
Contact
Write to us directly.
Briefly tell us who you are, which specialty you come from and what interests you about the shared-practice arrangement. We will get back to you personally and clarify whether a conversation or a morning on site makes sense.
