Nephrology and dialysis centre
"We attach great importance to professionally competent care, a pleasant, patient-friendly atmosphere and good contact with the referring GPs." Dr Robert Schorn, Head Physician Nephrology and Dialysis Centre
Nephrology is the medical speciality that deals with kidney diseases, their diagnosis and treatment. Our specialists treat the entire spectrum of kidney diseases. This also includes renal replacement therapies such as haemodialysis (blood washing), peritoneal dialysis (peritoneal dialysis) or kidney transplantation. In order to provide you with the best possible treatment, we work closely with other specialist departments and your family doctor.

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.
