Pathological overweight derives from multiple factors such as genetic predisposition, high caloric nutrition and limited physical activity. In the wake of adipositas the risk of secondary diseases such as premature arthrosis, diabetes and life-threatening cardiovascular events increases dramatically. Less weight means also more quality of life !

Our experts use a holistic approach in the treatment of patients with obesity. In addition to endocrinologists and surgeons, specialists in psychosomatic disorders and sports medicine are involved in diagnosis and treatment. Working as a team, they try to determine the individual medical and psychological causes of obesity and create weight reduction programs that include physical activity and psychosomatic support. For patients with pronounced treatment-resistant obesity, there are three different stomach operations available: gastric banding, gastric bypass, and “gastric-sleeve resection,” a significant reduction in the stomach’s size. Our specialists perform all operations laparoscopically.
