Asklepios Hospital Wandsbek Hamburg

Asklepios Hospital Wandsbek Hamburg is a private general hospital that has been operating since 1975 with a capacity of 500 beds. The main area of work is geriatric patients, supplemented by various services from various medical areas. Also, in just one department of cardiology, pneumology, and intensive care, about 4,000 patients with all forms of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases are treated as inpatients yearly. Furthermore, the number of diagnostic procedures annually is more than 2,500, and medical interventions in coronary vessels are about 1,000. In particular, about 300 patients receive pacemakers, ICDs, and CRT systems. In general, the medical center is the main one in the east of Hamburg regarding the number of services offered. In particular, the structure includes new maternity wards, a neonatal intensive care unit, a 201-bed geriatric ward, and 9 new operating theatres. In addition, the surgeons have a hybrid operating room with a computer X-ray arm and the first two 4K operating rooms in Germany with integrated device control and four times the resolution of Full HD. More than half of all operations are performed thanks to minimally invasive surgery using laparoscopic methods. This approach is essential for saving the patient's recovery time and reducing the risk of complications. In particular, the treatment of diverticulitis, thanks to the 4K image quality, allows you to preserve minor organ structures (such as nerves), reducing the risks of a colostomy. In addition to successes in general surgery, the hospital received the "Competence Center for Hernia Surgery" status from the German Hernia Society. Currently, this is the only officially certified hernia center in the city. Vascular surgeons gained a lot of experience, which allowed them to become part of the multidisciplinary "Hamburg-Ost Vascular Center". Special attention is paid to oncological cases of the disease, which are discussed weekly at a special conference of specialists in various fields. Doctors quickly establish an accurate diagnosis thanks to a broad spectrum of diagnostic possibilities, such as colonoscopy, capsule endoscopy, proctoscopy, multiple types of sonography, computer tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and radiography. Asklepios Сlinic Wandsbek Hamburg is an official consultation center of the Continence Society, which promotes the continuous development of gynecologists and urologists. Asklepios Medical Center Wandsbek Hamburg offers German-quality patient treatment in cardiology, gastroenterology, gynecology, urology, geriatrics, and surgery.
