Clinic for Internal Medicine and Cardiology
In our rehabilitation clinic for Internal Medicine and Cardiology patients are medically cared for and competently treated, both acutely and on an inpatient basis, as well as during follow-up treatment, for example, after surgical and invasive cardiological procedures.
The foundation of our treatment concept is a systematic approach based on the guidelines of evidence-based medicine, combined with our extensive clinical experience over many years in caring for critically ill patients. Evidence-based medicine means that a proven correlation and demonstrated effectiveness, supported by scientific evidence, are confirmed. These two components allow for an individually tailored approach to managing our patients' conditions and providing the best possible treatment options in our Asklepios Clinic for Internal Medicine and Cardiology.
Acute Inpatient Care in the Rehabilitation Clinic for Internal Medicine
- Heart
- Circulatory system
- Vessels
- Other internal organs and conditions (e.g., diabetes)
Care is provided in the individual, soothing atmosphere of a 5-star hotel. The medical expertise, combined with the latest knowledge and state-of-the-art technology, leads to a rapid diagnosis and treatment.
The "Intermediate Care" unit with complete monitoring allows for the surveillance and treatment of severe illness courses.
Rehabilitation:
Our services at the Rehabilitation Clinic for Internal Medicine include care and rehabilitation following a previous hospital stay (follow-up treatment). This may be necessary, for example, after a heart attack or a surgical procedure on the heart (heart valve replacement, bypass surgery, etc.), large blood vessels, particularly after organ transplants (heart, lung, liver), as well as other conditions.
FOCUS AREAS & MEDICAL CONDITIONS IN THE REHABILITATION CLINIC FOR INTERNAL MEDICINE
Our rehabilitation clinic for internal medicine and cardiology specializes in the following key areas and medical conditions:
- cardiology: posttreatment following acute cardiac conditions ( heart attack, heart failure) and surgery (stent implantation, bypass surgery, heart valve replacement, pacemaker implant)
- postoperative follow up especially following cardiac, thoracic and vascular surgery
- preparation of preoperative care and follow up after a heart, lung, kidney, or liver transplant
- angiology: post-treatment following acute diseases, arterial and venous system surgery as well as nonoperative treatment of all chronic diseases of the peripheral arterial and venous system
- nephrology: Prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care of kidney and hypertension diseases
- gastroenterology, post-surgery conditions on the gastrointestinal tract
- metabolic conditions: dyslipidemia, adiposity, diabetes mellitus
- rheumatic spectrum disorders
- chronic inflammation including respiratory conditions
All diagnostic procedures are regularly used throughout the treatment process to optimally adjust therapeutic measures to the patient's individual performance level. Naturally, physiotherapists, sports instructors, and nursing staff are integrated into the treatment concept.
This ensures a highly individualized, patient-centered approach, allowing for maximum effectiveness while maintaining the highest level of monitoring.

Follow Up Treatment
The follow-up treatment (AHB) after a prior inpatient hospital stay aims to restore and effectively improve health and performance. The therapy is individually tailored to each patient, starting from the initial examination upon admission, through daily medical rounds, to periodic assessments that monitor the healing process—particularly in the fields of internal medicine and cardiology.
Medical measures are supported and complemented by physiotherapeutic exercises using state-of-the-art equipment, as well as therapeutic applications provided by sports instructors and physiotherapists.

Gesundheits-Check-Up
How is your health?
It's a question that is often brushed under the carpet because of the next important deadline in today's professional world. But health is a cornerstone of your professional success! Even before recognizing the onset of symptoms when changes in your body may have a negative impact on your health, something worse can be prevented in many cases.
High blood pressure or a metabolic condition is not painful in the first stages of the disease. If these processes are diagnosed early, however, modern medicine makes it is possible to helpfully intervene! Therefore, we offer a health check-up for such cases.
Manager Check Up
Motivate your employees
More and more companies are also dedicated to the health of their employees. Individually customised company check ups allow you to continually improve your team performance.
Team play according to size
We would be happy to create a company check up that suits your employees. We would plan the most useful services and issues requiring special care together with you. Upon request, a team package may also be combined with other offers at our facility. One example would be Nordic walking as a group.

New therapeutic approaches in the cardiology
Due to these innovative complex approaches risks are minimized, the health status is improved and with that surgeries can be avoided in many cases. However, if necessary, the conservative cardiology can create optimal conditions for it.
During the medical care in the private practice for internal medicine and cardiology and respectively during an inpatient stay in the clinic we can realise these modern concepts individually for you.
