FAQ

Is the clinic one of the best in vascular diseases?

The hospital was the first to introduce hybrid operations on vessels thanks to a unique X-ray system that allows getting a picture from a different angle, even during surgery, significantly improving accuracy. Innovative methods make the clinic a leader in vascular interventions.

Is treatment available for children at Helios Hospital Duisburg-Homberg?

The interdisciplinary early support center (IFF) offers a combination of medical and educational support and medical therapy (speech therapy, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and psychological counseling), and promotional therapy for children with developmental defects.

Is a hospital suitable for orthopedics in Germany?

At a certified endoprosthesis unit, patients who need a complete joint replacement are fitted with joint prostheses using a minimally invasive approach. The instruments are guided without tearing the muscles to minimize the structure's trauma risk.
