Training of our staff and internal quality control

All doctors working in Open House have degrees from respected universities in the career of medicine. Between the medical director and his medical team we have a total of 65 years of experience as doctors! On entering Open House, each doctor receives a course of 240 hours of medical consultations on clinical practice with patients and also separate courses about sexually transmitted infections, the appropriate techniques for medical history taking and physical examinations etc and they are not left on their own in the consultations until they have grasp the sexually transmitted infections field completely. Throughout each year of work the medical director performs a clinical evaluation of the work of the doctors and there are compulsory courses of continuing professional training.

Open House works with clinical guidelines that we call our “Clinical Standard Operating Procedures”. They cover issues such as the important infections (management of syphilis, for example) and common situations (urethritis, rashes etc. ) and the are a set of golden rules for our doctors.
They are a fusion of the new issues emerging on each disease according to recent scientific publications and hence maintain the quality of our work. In fact, by entering Open House doctors sign an appendix to their contracts obliging them to work in compliance with these procedures.
These procedures are reviewed each year, according to the developments in our field, and together with a record of the training that the doctors have been received we submit this documentation to the relevant health authorities to demonstrate our commitment to ongoing training and quality.
