Daniel Zimpfer | Klinikleiter

Today, we can help almost all patients suffering from heart disease very effectively and are constantly striving to improve prognosis and quality of life through applied research.

In 1994 the department of Cardiothoracic surgery was split up into the divisions for Cardiac- and Thoracic surgery. Since their invention in the 1950s, cardiothoracic procedures developed over the next decades to a discipline of medical specialty, and today nearly almost any kind of cardiac desease can be treated at our Clinic. Constant effort in applied science improves prognosis and quality-of-life of our Patients.
