Nephrology and dialysis centre
We attach great importance to professional, competent care, a pleasant and patient-friendly atmosphere and close, trusting co-operation with the referring general practitioners.
Nephrology deals with the detection, treatment and care of kidney diseases. Our specialists cover the entire spectrum of renal medicine - from diagnosis to long-term therapy.
This also includes modern renal replacement procedures such as haemodialysis (blood washing), peritoneal dialysis (peritoneal dialysis) and support for kidney transplants.
To provide the best possible care, we work closely with other specialist departments and your family doctor - in a coordinated, networked manner and completely focussed on your needs.

Chronic kidney disease - recognise it early, take targeted action
Our kidneys perform vital tasks - they regulate the fluid balance, filter the blood and keep the blood pressure in balance. If these functions are impaired over a long period of time, this is known as chronic kidney disease. The disease often progresses gradually and goes unnoticed for a long time. In our blog post, you can find out the underlying causes, how to recognise the first signs, what modern treatment options are available - and what you can do to prevent it yourself.
