Pediatric Hospital Asklepios St. Augustin

Pediatric Hospital Asklepios St. Augustin has provided general and specialized medical care to newborns, children, and adolescents since 1972. Annually, more than 50,000 small patients are served on 225 beds. In addition, the ambulatory spectrum of treatment and day hospitals are also developed. More than 600 employees take care of the comfort of children and their parents and ensure maximum safety. This approach made it possible to receive from the jury of the organization "Excellent. FOR CHILDREN", a mark of quality in pediatric surgery and pediatric and adolescent medicine. The regional association of the Rhine region also expressed its recognition for exemplary management. The medical center is supportive of patients with a variety of symptoms. A children's incontinence center certified by The German Continence Society is available on-site. Urologists and pediatricians provide physiotherapeutic, medical, and surgical cures. For diagnostic procedures, doctors have access to the latest low-dose CT scan, which is ideal for kids. Also, the achievements and high indicators of the effectiveness of treatment with a small percentage of complications were noted by Focus magazine. Doctors in pediatric neurosurgery, pediatric cardiac surgery, and thoracic surgery were among the country's best doctors in 2017 and 2018. Apart from this, pediatric neurosurgery was also recognized by the Indian Society of Pediatric Neurosurgery. The department of neonatology also expands the range of services. It has been developed in cooperation with the clinics of the non-profit society of Franciscan nuns in Olpe. The obstetrics and neonatology support unit helps newborns under challenging cases and determines the most gentle and effective treatment in a multidisciplinary manner. Also, the complications of oncological remedies are accepted by the Pediatric Clinic Asklepios in St. Augustin. Oncologists propose reducing the effects of chemotherapy and radiation through treatment with antibodies against specific cells and growth factors that minimize tumor nutrition and its spread. St. Augustin Pediatric Medical Center Asklepios offers parents modern treatment for juniors in urology, neurosurgery, general surgery, cardiology, psychiatry, traumatology, otolaryngology, and general therapy. The availability of high-precision diagnostics and various specialists in one place reduces the cost burden and the consumption of precious time, even in complex cases.
