Treatment Spectrum

Outpatient surgery.
Home today, not hospital today.

When an operation is needed, a hospital stay is often unnecessary. Up to 70% of all surgical procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis with no disadvantage to patients — we perform many of these procedures as office-based surgeons in our own operating theatres.

An operation does not have to mean a hospital stay. On the contrary: recovering at home in familiar surroundings is often faster — with a significantly lower risk of hospital-acquired infections.

Our own operating theatres Admission. Surgery. Recovery room. Home —
all in one day.
Treatment process

From the pre-operative consultation
