Logopädische Praxisgemeinschaft

What Logopädische Praxisgemeinschaft does

Logopädische Praxisgemeinschaft Cottbus is a private partnership (Praxisgemeinschaft) of three licensed speech therapists — Elke Lüben, Elke Lohr, and Mandy Binder — operating a medical speech therapy practice within the German statutory healthcare system. The practice is headquartered at Eilenburger Straße 9A, 03050 Cottbus, with a second location in Döbern, and serves infants, children, adolescents, and adults across the Cottbus and surrounding Brandenburg region, including via home visits (Hausbesuche). Patients access treatment only via physician prescription (Heilmittelverordnung), and services are reimbursed through statutory health insurance (gesetzliche Krankenversicherung) or private insurance, placing the practice squarely in the regulated medical basic care (medizinische Grundversorgung) channel.

The service portfolio covers voice, language, speech, and swallowing disorders across all age groups, plus specialized niches: myofunctional therapy, dysphagia, stuttering, neurological and geriatric rehabilitation (stroke, Parkinson's, MS, ALS), tracheostomy management, Wachkoma/Phase F patient care, and dyslexia/Legasthenie training delivered via the AFS method (Attention-Function-Symptom) developed by Dr. Astrid Kopp-Duller. Delivery is therapist-led through individual sessions, group therapy, and home visits, using established clinical methodologies including Bobath, Facio-Oral Trakt Therapie (F.O.T.T.) by Kay Coombes, and myofunctional therapy.

The business model is professional services reimbursement under the German Heilmittel framework with a referral-led go-to-market (physician prescriptions, GKV/payer networks, community reputation). Reported headcount is approximately 6 employees; no external investment, parent company, or subsidiary relationships are disclosed. Pricing is not publicly listed; revenue figures, patient volumes, and treatment capacity utilization are not disclosed, and there is no evidence of digital products, software platforms, or AI/ML tooling — the offering is a fully clinical, in-person service practice.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• MEDIAN Kliniken: Germany's largest operator of rehabilitation clinics, providing neurological and geriatric rehab including speech and swallowing therapy. Directly comparable in clinical focus on neurogenic and Phase F populations served by this practice, but as a multi-site chain.
• Helios Kliniken (Fresenius Helios): Largest German hospital group operating inpatient and outpatient services including SLP, dysphagia, and neurogenic rehabilitation across many sites. Comparable as the broader incumbent that captures regional referral flow (including complex post-acute cases) that this practice serves, but at vastly larger scale and scope.
• Sana Kliniken: German private hospital group with outpatient therapy services integrated into acute and rehab pathways. Competes for the same regional post-acute and neurogenic SLP referrals, with greater geographic diversification.
• Asklepios Kliniken: Major German private hospital group with extensive outpatient and rehabilitation offerings, including speech therapy services. Relevant incumbent that competes for regional neurogenic and post-acute patient referrals from the same Cottbus-area catchment.
• SRH Kliniken (SRH Gesundheit): German hospital and rehabilitation group including neurological rehabilitation with SLP/dysphagia services. Comparable as a broader healthcare provider that absorbs complex patient flows the Cottbus practice also serves.

Emerging players

• Selfapy: German digital therapy provider offering online courses for mental health, stress, and related conditions via DiGA pathways. Emerging player whose digital-first model could pull routine, lower-acuity therapy demand away from traditional in-person SLP practices over time.
• Kranus Health: German digital therapeutics startup delivering prescribed digital therapies (including for urology and men's health) via DiGA reimbursement. Emerging player demonstrating the digital reimbursement pathway that could eventually extend into SLP and reshape practice economics.
• Teleclinic (ZAVA Group): German telemedicine platform providing remote physician consultations and electronic prescriptions, including Heilmittelverordnungen for therapy. Emerging player that could route prescription-based SLP demand to tele-enabled competitors and away from in-person practices.

Others

• Doctolib: Major European healthcare booking and practice-management platform widely used by German medical practices for scheduling and patient communication. Adjacent enabler whose tools increasingly shape how small outpatient practices like this one acquire and manage patients.
• jameda: Leading German doctor and therapist directory and booking platform used heavily by patients searching for SLP practices. Functionally comparable as a patient-acquisition channel that competes for visibility with the practice's referral-led motion.
