- Midwives on a contract basis, who will be there to support you personally throughout the entire birth

neonatal care (NICU)
Since 1996, our neonatal intensive care unit has been caring for premature babies born from the 32nd week of pregnancy onwards and unwell newborns – right here in the hospital. Parents are involved right from the start, for example through kangaroo care and rooming-in.
Centre for Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery (MIC) and Endometriosis
Centre
Endometriosis, fibroids, adhesions or bleeding disorders: at our accredited centre, we perform minimally invasive surgery (MIC), which involves small incisions and, in most cases, a short recovery time.
Breast, Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery
Our focus is on medically necessary procedures: breast reconstruction following breast cancer, breast reduction and liposuction for lipoedema. In addition, our clinic serves as a surgical centre for cosmetic procedures carried out by our partner practices.
What sets our clinic apart
Children have been born at the Geisenhofer Clinic by the English Garden since 1940 – today, around 2,000 a year.
What sets the clinic apart is its combination of a personal atmosphere and medical safety: a compact facility housed in a historic villa surrounded by greenery, where the obstetrics, neonatal intensive care, breast centre and gynaecological surgery departments work closely together.
In addition, our MVZ Dr Geisenhofer Outpatient gynaecological care right next door.
