Internal Medicine & Cardiology
In the Department of Internal Medicine, patients undergoing acute inpatient treatment as well as rehabilitation are provided with medical supervision and professional care following such things as invasive cardiac procedures.
The basis of our treatment concept involves the methodical use of guidelines for evidence-based medicine. However, it is also based on broad clinical experience with severely ill patients over many years. This allows us to treat our patients in a way that is particularly suited to medical their needs.

Acute inpatient care:
We offer medical treatment for acute health conditions affecting the heart, circulation and blood vessels or other internal organs and diseases (such as diabetes) comparable to that of a large hospital but in the distinct atmosphere of a five star hotel. Medical expertise based on the most recent information combined with the latest technology allows for swift diagnosis and treatment.
The "intermediate care" concept involving comprehensive monitoring enables the supervision and treatment of severe disease progression.
Medical care and rehabilitation are often needed following a previous hospital stay for a heart attack or heart surgery, for example, (heart valve replacement, bypass surgery, etc.) or surgery on large vessels. This is especially the case following organ transplants (heart, lung, liver) and other conditions.
For this purpose, we would like to share our special offer with you.

Our Specialties & Disorders
- 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
- gastroenterology, post-surgery conditions on the gastrointestinal tract

All diagnostic methods are used regularly over the course of treatment to achieve optimal treatment measures based on the patient's individual performance level. Of course, physical therapists, athletic instructors and nursing staff are involved in the treatment regimen.
That requires an individual patient-oriented treatment. This approach allows for a high degree of effectiveness and maximum supervision options.

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!

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 and respectively during an inpatient stay in the clinic we can realise these modern concepts individually for you.
