Hello @sabtau , thank you for reaching out to us. If you need an interpreter to accompany you to a doctor's appointment, please contact one of the many counseling centers for immigrants: https://bamf-navi.bamf.de/de/Themen/Migrationsberatung/?coord=803993.58…; Especially Caritas https://www.caritas-berlin.de/beratungundhilfe/berlin/online-beratung/o… or Deutsches Rotes Kreuz: https://www.drk-berlin.de/angebote/migration-und-integration/migrations…, I think they can help you find a good solution.

Hi @sabtau, I understand your situation. You can contact local immigrant support or counseling centers to find an interpreter for your doctor’s appointment. Some options in Berlin include Caritas and Deutsches Rotes Kreuz. They can help arrange a German-English translator so your appointment goes smoothly.
