Dr. Patrick Nierlich

As a private doctor, I take time for you. I am always committed to explaining the diagnosis and treatment to my patients in a clear and understandable manner. Even after the surgery, I personally take care of my patients and am there for them when they need it most.

Furthermore, I am naturally available to my patients after the procedure for questions and concerns. In this way, any questions about post-treatment and recovery can also be discussed together with the patients' relatives.
