The planning of the course of therapy is carried out by the specialists at the Obesity Center after an extensive consultation with the patient. The specialists from the various medical fields discuss possible courses of treatment before deciding on a final treatment plan.

Conservative therapy consists of a combination of various treatments – including diet courses, exercise classes and self-help discussion groups. Medication which targets obesity is also used.

Depending on the necessity, various operative procedures are available – from a gastric bypass to a gastric band. We use keyhole surgical techniques whenever possible to ensure the patient recovers as quickly as possible.

The success of the course of treatment depends significantly on a continuous aftercare program. All physicians, therapists and those offering advice are constantly monitoring each patient’s progress after the end of the initial course of treatment.
