Areas of Specialization:

Preventive Medicine and Diagnostics

The Private Health Center administers customized and comprehensive check-ups to provide an accurate overview of the patient’s health. Each examination is designed to reveal potential risk factors and formulate effective strategies for fortifying future wellbeing.

The clinic’s proactive approach is optimized for identifying or preventing diseases—the earlier an illness is diagnosed, the more effective the treatment will be. Highly trained specialists span multiple disciplines to evaluate risk factors for numerous conditions, including stroke, cardiac arrest, kidney disease, diabetes, and cancer.

The Private Health Center offers a plethora of preventive medicine and diagnostic services, including:

• Cardiovascular examinations
• Genetic analysis
• Comprehensive laboratory diagnostics
• Preventive cancer screenings
• Cardiology
• General internal medicine
• Dental medicine
• Mental Health

Appointments are scheduled as individual and/or organ-specific examinations.

A specialist analysis examination results and the patient’s medical history to prepare a prognosis in a summary health report.

Should further assessment be necessary, the doctor will discuss the issue in clear terms to ensure the patient comprehends the condition’s complexities. A personal case manager will organise a follow-up consultation where required.

Individual Check-Ups

An expert in internal medicine conducts an in-depth interview, covering the patient’s history, current health status as well as lifestyle and potential risk factors (alcohol, smoking, stress, etc.).

An individual health check-up takes up to one day and includes a comprehensive interview and physical examination, an ECG and a blood and urine test. Further examinations, if required, can be offered and organised within short notice.

Organ-Specific Check-Ups

The Private Health Center also offers organ-specific preventive health check-ups for the early identification of illness and disease.

A specialist in the relevant field will interview the patient to evaluate their medical history (including family history) before providing an organ-specific examination such as laboratory analysis or ultrasound or an individual genetic analysis. 

State-of-the-art facilities and cutting edge expertise enable the specialist to identify potential issues and formulate an effective treatment regime. Adressing organ-specific illnesses from the early stages gives the patient a much better chance of overcoming the disease.

Organic-specific specialties include: Ophthalmology, Ear-Nose-Throat, Dental Health, Dermatology, Endocrinology/Diabetology, Mental Health, Neurourology, Angiology, Neurology, General internal medicine, Orthopaedics, Rheumatology, Pharmacology, Cardiology, Pneumology, Gastroenterology, Gynaecology, and Urology.
