Dr. Rocío Estella
Pediatrician in Marbella for International Patients
After almost 15 years of experience in Germany, I have returned to Spain, my homeland, to continue with my passion for pediatrics and neonatology. That is why I have the ability to assist you in English, German and Spanish.
I understand that trusting your child’s health to a doctor is an important decision, and I want you to know that here, at German Clinic Marbella, your child will be in safe and loving hands.
Training and Experience in Pediatrics and Neonatology
My journey in medicine began at the University of Granada, where I graduated in Medicine and Surgery. Subsequently, I moved to Germany to specialize in pediatrics and neonatology at Justus Liebig University Giessen (Germany), a decision that marked my professional life.
During my time in Germany, I had the opportunity to work in some of the most prestigious pediatric hospitals, gaining invaluable experience in the diagnosis and treatment of various childhood and neonatal conditions.
After my last stage as Head of Pediatrics, Specialist in Neonatology, Children’s ICU and Neonatology at the Klinikum Hospital, Dortmund (Germany) I decided to return to Spain.
If you are looking for a pediatrician in Marbella with international experience and a patient-centered approach, I will be happy to be the trusted doctor for your child’s health care.

Ich möchte an dieser Stelle eine große Wertschätzung an Dr. Nilson erwähnen, welcher wirklich ein sehr emphatischer Arzt ist und sehr viel für seine Patienten macht :)Publicado en Google Anke KesslerTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. We’ve been with Dr. Rocio for about three years now and I honestly hardly ever write Google reviews, but she truly deserves one. She is an incredible pediatrician — warm, patient and wonderful with children. She has a very special way of making kids feel safe and calm, even when they are scared. As a parent, I always feel taken seriously and she explains everything clearly and kindly. She is also extremely knowledgeable and you can tell that she is very up to date with modern medicine and current approaches. The whole clinic is amazing as well. The reception team is always friendly, helpful and reachable. As a family living abroad, having a multilingual clinic like this gives us a real feeling of comfort and safety. We are very grateful to have found Dr. Rocio and her team. 🫶🫶Publicado en Google Irina ShevTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Update (29.05.2026): Heute, fast fünfeinhalb Jahre nach meiner Bewertung, kam endlich eine Reaktion der Klinik. Diese verspätete Antwort spricht für sich und bestätigt im Grunde genau das, was ich 2021 beschrieben habe: Kommunikation und Reaktionszeit lassen zu wünschen übrig. Zwischenzeitlich habe ich meinen Rücken bereits 2022 in Deutschland operieren lassen. In die German Clinic bin ich nie wieder zurückgekehrt. An meiner damaligen Einschätzung ändert die späte Antwort nichts. Termin 03.12.2021 Nicht empfehlenswert. Ich berichte und begründe meine Bewertung etwas näher: Termin beim Dr. Ignatios Chatziandreou. Erster Termin am 03.12.2021 aufgrund von schlimmer, akuter Bandscheiben Schmerzen. Termin nach 40 Minütiger Wartezeit (darüber beschwert sich ja nicht Mal einer mehr oder geschweige denn entschuldigt sich einer an der Rezeption). Nein, Mann (Patient) komme also rechtzeitig oder gar früher und warte. Was man nicht alles hinnimmt für gute medizinische Auskunft. Aussage vom 03.12.21 - man solle schnell Hüften und Bandscheibe röntgen - also RX und MRT. Kostenfaktor ca. 600 Euro (auf die schnelle), weil ein Arztbericht wurde mir am gleichen Tag weder ausgehändigt, noch an meine Emailadresse, wie versprochen, zugeschickt. Aber zack, nicht vergessen, an die Kasse 120 Euro, für die Beratung. Also, Arzt verordnet- hop hop schnell gemacht natürlich. Wir sind jetzt bei 120 Euro Beratung, 450 Euro MRT und 95 Euro RX. Summe= 557 Euro, die bereits ausgegeben wurde und die ich mir von der Versicherung nicht zurückholen kann, da jeglicher Bericht (versprochen) fehlt vom Arzt. Gut, denke ich mir, was man nicht alles tut, ist ja DIE GERMAN Clinic, sprich - Pünktlichkeit, Qualität und etc. und mache natürlich einen zweiten Termin für die Begutachtung der MRT und Röntgenbilder. Termin am 15.12.21 - man warte erneut 25 Min. Bin ja schon gewohnt. Ich komme dran und der Arzt befasst sich ausschliesslich mit meinen Hüftbildern (also nicht der Ursprung meiner Schmerzen) und meint ich brauche zwei OP´s weil ich angeblich eine hüftdysplasie habe. Nach 30 Minuten Winkelausmessen, habe ich endlich zu dem kommen können was so sehr schmerzt - meine Bandscheibe. Und man stelle fest - die Bandscheibe ist ausgetreten und drückt auf den Nerv und muss operiert werden (5 Minuten Beratung). Macht jedoch nicht er sondern einer seiner Kollegen aus Sevilla. In meiner Anwesenheit wird der Kollege angerufen (keiner geht dran natürlich) und man verspricht sich bei mir telefonisch, email zu melden. Kurzfristig versteht sich, ist ja eine heikle Situation, die schmerzt. Was soll ich noch dazu hinzufügen? Ach ja, an der Kasse erneut 60 Euro bezahlt. Ich warte bis Freitag, 24.12.21 und erhalte immer noch keine Rückmeldung, geschweige denn Empfehlung auf den Arzt noch irgendwelche Befunde oder Anamnese. Ich rufe da an und erhalte die Aussage, dass der Arzt gar nicht im Hause sei und man ihm eine Nachricht hinterlassen würde. Ist doch Weihnachten an der Tür! Was soll ich noch dazu hinzufügen? Heute ist der 21.12.2021 - bis heute hat sich keiner gemeldet und keine Befunde zugeschickt, was mir ermöglichen würde die Kosten von meiner Versicherung zurückzufordern. Es ist einfach nur traurig, dass die Patienten so behandelt werden. Warten ohne jegliche Benachrichtigung darüber obwohl jede Minute Sitzen Schmerzen verursacht, abrechnen ohne jeglichen wirklichen Service zu leisten. Von der Klinik erwarte ich weder Rückruf noch irgendeine Hilfe, die hole ich mir von wirklichen Ärzten direkt in Deutschland.Publicado en Google Clive JanesTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. I had a really good experience here at this clinic. The whole atmosphere is calm and the reception team put you at ease from the first contact. I went in without an appointment but was able to see a doctor within just a few minutes who dealt with my wound very carefully over 3 visits. I hope the need doesn't arise but if it does I would go there again.Publicado en Google Nykyta PavelkoTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. THE BEST!Publicado en Google Polona PoTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. The clinic is very nice and dr.Bizjak de Fonseca was amazing and very attentive and professional. I highly recommend!Publicado en Google Nina RazenTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. I would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to gynecologis dr. Tina Bizjak de Fonseca , for the exceptional kindness, professionalism, and compassionate care I received. From the very first moment, I felt welcomed, heard, and treated with great respect. I truly appreciate the time you took, ypur willingness to listen, her patience in answering questions, and the sense of safety and trust she creates for her patients. Alongside her professional expertise, she also shows warmth and humanity, which means a great deal in medical care. I recognized in her a doctor I can completely trust, as she performs her work responsibly, with dedication, and with genuine care for the well-being of her patients. I am deeply grateful for such a positive experience and for all the support I received. Healthcare professionals like her are truly invaluable. Sincere thanks.
