Internal Medicine

In recent years there has been a trend in the internal medicine department towards an ever-increasing specialization in organ-related areas of competence.

The Department of Internal Medicine places a special emphasis on gastroenterology and hepatology, diagnosing gastro-intestinal disorders with the aid of state-of-the-art diagnostics and therapeutics, as well as geriatrics and cardiology.

The past few years have seen a massive increase in metabolism disorders such as diabetes mellitus, obesity and lipid metabolism disorders. A sharp focus on this area, combined with close cooperation with the metabolism rehabilitation in the Humanomed Center Althofen is providing an ideal response to this development.
