English-speaking Hospital in Katowice?

Hi all,

I am currently in Katowice and I was wondering if there are any English-speaking hospitals in Katowice. I just had a knee injury about a week ago and I'm really having trouble dealing with the doctors here because they don't speak any English and I sadly don't speak enough Polish to be able to communicate well.

Also, I noticed that every time I go to the hospital I spend at least 2 or 3 hours just waiting for my turn to be seen by the doctor. Is that standard in public hospitals or is there a way around it (ie. go at different times or different days).

What about private hospitals? Are they any faster or better than the public hospitals?

Really need some help here as my injury is basically preventing me from walking or moving normally and I'm really having trouble dealing with medical staff here.

If you're out of luck in Katowice, you may go to the nearby Chorzow (which is known to provide excellent health-care in Poland), for example: zsm.com.pl/en/
