One of the most asked questions is for English speaking doctors, dentists etc in Bielefeld. Here is a great brochure which lists doctors and specialists who speak foreign languages in Bielefeld. Also below are my personal recommendations (all speak enough English for me to communicate with but you do need a few words of German to speak to the receptionists).
General Practioner: Dr Winter, Bahnhofstraße 42, 33602 Bielefeld
0521 5215100
Or if you are looking for a doctor in the Altstadt check out Coralie’s recommendations
Dentist: Dr Zwanzig Mauerstr. 8 • 33602 Bielefeld 0521-178580 (the ‘older’ Dr Zwangiz Sr. is recommended)

Great post! For TropenMedizin (Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease), I recommend Dr. med.
Luise Marie Prüfer-Krämer: http://www.tropenmedizin-bielefeld.de/doktor/?page_id=30/. I think I left other suggestions on Coralie’s post, as well.

#dentists
Dr. Rocholl (in Sieker, tram 2) speaks English. He goes to Ireland to make implants on a regular basis. Having your teeth cleaned is more expensive than at other dentists, but appointment times are alway kept there. I’ve been very happy with the work he did so far.
#doctor search (everything exept dentists)
If you search a doctor who speaks English, French, Italian (or whatever else) you can phone the “Patientenberatung” on 0521-929900 (Mo-Th 9.00-4.00 p.m., Fridays 9-11 a.m) , send them an email or use the web search of the Ärztekammer:
http://www.aekwl.de/index.php?id=512
“Fachgebiet” ist the kind of doctor you search
“Ort” = city
“Sonstiges Stichwort” is where you type in the language you need, since the text is in German you need to type the German word for your language

Another option is this page, chose “Fremdsprachenkenntnisse” for foreign language skills:
