Interdisciplinary Medical Center Clinic for General Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Internistic Oncology
Our clinic treats patients of all internistic disciplines. Special emphasis is placed on gastroenterological, hepatological and onkological disorders. In the area of diagnostic endoscopy, we offer zoom and chromoendoscopies, wireless ph-metries, manometries, impedance measurement, 2H and 13C respiration tests, endosonographies and all types of endoscopy (including capsule endoscopy and double-balloon endoscopies). Therapeutically, the following procedures (among others) are performed: mucosectomies, ERCPs, PTCDs and stent implantations. This clinic has a state-of the art equipped endoscopy department with a comprehensive gastroenterological functional laboratory.
A further area of emphasis is gastroenterological oncology. For medical care, an intensive care unit with six internistic beds is available. A pneumological specialty (with body pletysmography, spiro-ergometry and bronchoscopy) was extended. In the cardiology department, ECGs, long-term ECGs, stress ECGs, echocardiographs incl. TEE, 24-h long-term blood-pressure measurements, temporary pacemaker therapies and electrocardioversions are performed.
