About the clinic

Treatment for breast cancer at North Rhine-Westphalia Association clinics in Germany includes a full range of advanced options. Diagnostics start at around $590 for a breast biopsy. A single chemotherapy session may cost about $1,180, while a lumpectomy typically runs $12,975. The clinic is a certified Breast Tumor Center recognized by the German Cancer Society.

Comprehensive Diagnostics

The clinic offers a thorough diagnostic process. Doctors use advanced imaging and biopsy to determine the cancer's type and stage. This helps create a personalized treatment plan. Key diagnostic options include:

  • Breast biopsy for tissue analysis.
  • 3D mammography and breast ultrasound.
  • MRI of the breast or abdomen.
  • PET/CT scans for a detailed overview.
A PET/CT scan may cost around $2,713.

Available Treatments and Surgery

The medical team tailors treatment to each patient. This often involves a combination of therapies. All options are available on-site.

  • Chemotherapy is given on a day hospital or inpatient basis. Each session includes medications and oncologist supervision.
  • Radiation therapy is delivered with precision to target tumor cells.
  • Lumpectomy removes the tumor while preserving the breast.
  • Mastectomy involves the complete removal of breast tissue.
  • Port implantation supports comfortable chemotherapy administration.
Surgical procedures are comprehensive. A mastectomy may cost around $17,693. A complete breast cancer surgery package is about $20,052. The team can use the Da Vinci robotic system for minimally invasive operations. Dr. med. Katja Zintelgandt leads the mammology center. She is a leading specialist in oncological mammology.

Why This Clinic Stands Out

The clinic's Breast Tumor Center holds official DKG certification. This means it meets stringent quality standards for gynecological cancer care. Its focus is solely on providing expert, patient-centered treatment. It is part of a large hospital group that treats over 145,000 patients a year. To explore a personalized treatment plan, you can contact the clinic for more information.

A modern hospital with very friendly staff, but there are also negative aspects. There are no TVs in the rooms anymore. The reason for this is Wi-Fi. Everyone has a device, but what do older people do if they don't have one? You can no longer choose your food; you're assigned a meal, although there are already a variety of dishes, which I find a bit unreasonable. What was really pleasant, however, were the extremely friendly nurses.

The emergency room was a disaster, a very unfriendly and rude doctor who barely spoke German. It's unbelievable what patients and relatives have to put up with at the heart clinic. Later, on ward A1.1, there's no blanket for the patient, and no one cares. The only answer is, "We don't have any." Never again in this hospital. I just hope it doesn't spread to the heart clinic, because the KWK was always very good.

I was here a month ago for cardiac ablation and was really impressed—the whole experience was outstanding. I thought, "Wow, if I ever have a problem again, I'll come here." The doctors were great, as were the nurses. But then I came back here for the pacemaker lead change. I was admitted to ward B3.1 on Monday and was supposed to have surgery on Tuesday, but it was postponed to Wednesday and then again to Thursday, supposedly due to an emergency. I've been here almost a week now with nothing happening, and it's really frustrating. How can you stay patient? You're already sick, and then you have to put up with things like this. When you ask the nurses for something, you often feel like you should be grateful, even though there are simple things like using the toilet that's been soiled by an elderly roommate. The hygiene leaves a lot to be desired, and I'm honestly disappointed. Whether I'll come here again is something I'll have to think about seriously in the future.
