Approach & Philosophy

The taboo surrounding conditions of the bowel and rectum stands dangerously in the way of many people's health every day. Many of those affected wait far too long before seeking professional help. Visiting a specialist takes considerable courage, and the fear of treatments or diagnoses stops many from taking timely action. Yet this is precisely what is crucial to avoid serious complications.

In my practices, we take plenty of time for each individual patient. We meet you at eye level, address unfounded concerns, and in doing so create the basis for an honest anamnesis discussion – a central part of our work.

Specialist in Coloproctology, Pelvic Floor and Continence Disorders

In my state-of-the-art practices, our teams take plenty of time. Together with you, we find the most effective treatment methods – precisely tailored to your individual needs.

You will be treated by one of the most experienced medical practitioners in this field. International lectures and seminars are as much a part of his more than 25 years of practical experience as thousands of operations at highly specialised clinics in North Rhine-Westphalia.

We offer you, among other things:

  • Modern, minimally invasive surgical procedures for common conditions such as haemorrhoids, anal abscess, anal fistula, anal fissures, anal eczema and rhagades.
  • Pit-picking surgical method for pilonidal sinus. (chronically inflamed gluteal cleft)
  • Colonoscopy. (bowel examination, screening and follow-up checks)
  • Gastroscopic examination.
  • Drawing on my many years of experience, I treat faecal and urinary incontinence effectively.
  • Treatment of rectal prolapse.
  • We also specialise in ultrasound examinations, of course.
  • Treatment of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
