Stefanie Minkley worked as a surgeon in the hospital for years. Then she got out. Now she wants to save the sick health system as a politician. First stop: the Hessian state parliament. With the star she spoke about her experiences in everyday clinical practice, false incentives – and decisions that are not made exclusively for the benefit of patients.

Many clinicians and medical professionals have written to me who appreciate that I make the shortcomings of the system public.
