Friday morning, 10 a.m. in Mainz. Gerhard Trabert parks his doctor’s van in front of a homeless shelter. „Does anyone here need anything?“ Trabert asks the group. One person needs a new medication for high blood pressure, another is in pain because of an infected tooth. Trabert invites them all into the doctor’s van. The converted van from the Poverty and Health Association in Germany has everything a doctor needs on the street: a patient couch, blood pressure monitor, filing cabinets. There are even some medicines on board. „You don’t have a health insurance card, do you?“ Trabert asks one of the men. „Nope,“ he says. Trabert looks after him anyway. Whether insured or not, Trabert helps everyone here in Mainz. That is his philosophy, true to the motto: human dignity is inviolable.
