Helios Hospital Duisburg

Helios Hospital Duisburg is a group of tertiary hospitals and an academic teaching hospital at Heinrich Heine University in Dusseldorf. The hospital has three locations: Helios St. Johannes in Hamborn, Helios St. Vincenz in Dellviertel, and Helios Marien Hospital in Hochfeld. The merger of the three centers allowed the clinic to offer a wide range of medical services and meet the needs of patients in the region. With 24 specialized departments, 948 beds, and about 1,600 employees, the medical center offers people living in and around Duisburg comprehensive medical, therapeutic, and nursing care. Surgeons perform more than 13,000 operations in state-of-the-art hybrid operating rooms per year. As a maximum care provider, a professional team offers patients modern medicine at the highest level. Most procedures are performed in seven operating theatres using gentle, minimally invasive procedures. In two cardiac catheter laboratories, cardiac surgeons work directly on the heart using the tiniest access points. In addition, doctors regularly discuss malignant diseases at so-called tumor boards. In this way, the medical team ensures that all possible and new therapy options can be considered and included in the treatment. The perinatal center of the clinic has received the highest level of assistance in Germany in the care of premature newborns. This award not only emphasizes the very close cooperation between pediatrics and obstetrics but also confirms the high professionalism of doctors. The main directions of the hospital are internal medicine, oncology, rheumatology, neurology, thoracic surgery, and spinal surgery. The Duisburg Hospital also has specialized centers for the lungs, breasts, pelvic floor, addiction medicine, and a sleep laboratory. Doctors focus on patient-centered, high-quality care and support. A team of nurses, physiotherapists, psychologists, and social workers with many years of experience takes care of patients with tact, trust, and professionalism throughout their stay in the hospital.
