Diagnostics & Examination

The clinic offers a comprehensive Gastro check-up for thorough evaluation. This is a detailed package that includes multiple tests in one visit. The goal is to provide a complete picture of stomach and abdominal health. Key diagnostic methods include:

  • Endoscopic gastroscopy: This minimally invasive examination uses a flexible endoscope. It allows for direct visual inspection of the stomach lining. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis with sedation for comfort.
  • Abdominal ultrasound: A painless imaging test to view abdominal organs.
  • Laboratory tests: Blood and other tests to check general health.
  • Histological examination: Analysis of tissue samples taken during gastroscopy.
  • H. pylori antigen test: Checks for a common stomach bacteria.

Treatment Approach

The initial step is accurate diagnosis through the check-up package. The package includes a consultation and all necessary tests. Findings from the endoscopy and histology guide any further treatment plans. This ensures a tailored approach based on individual results.

The all-inclusive Gastro check-up package typically costs around €4,500. The package covers all medical components of the diagnostic process:

  • Medical history interview and consultation.
  • All listed diagnostic procedures (gastroscopy, ultrasound, lab tests).
  • Sedation for the gastroscopy.
  • Histological examination of samples.
  • H. pylori antigen testing.

Patients should note that flights, hotel accommodation, and costs for any complications are not included. Contact the clinic to discuss your specific needs and arrange a comprehensive evaluation.

St. Martinus-Krankenhaus Düsseldorf: more details about the clinic

Germany, Dusseldorf
  • Obesity Center at St. Martinus-Krankenhaus is one of only two German centers which are accredited by the International Federation of Surgery and Obesity (IFSO).
  • The latest achievement of the Clinic is the title of Top Mediziner 2016 in obesity surgery according to Focus Magazine. This is one of the most prestigious awards among German medical institutions.
  • Besides, Obesity Center possesses the rank of Kompetenz-Zentrum fur Adipositachirurgie (Honored Center for Obesity Treatment)

St. Martinus-Krankenhaus is a multidisciplinary clinic which includes 3 specialized centers and 6 departments, namely, of Ophthalmology, Therapy, General and Visceral Surgery, Traumatology, Geriatrics, and Anesthesiology and Intensive Care.

All centers have passed the accreditation of influential medical associations.

 

Obesity Center

The Center is headed by Dr. Matthias Schlensak who has managed to involve in his team many experienced surgeons as well as other specialists like dietitians, personal coaches, and behavioral therapists. It means that the treatment here is based on the interdisciplinary approach which increases the therapy’s effectiveness.

The physicians of St. Martinus-Krankenhaus perform both traditional bariatric surgeries and innovative interventions.

 

Standard minimally invasive surgeries

Gastric sleeve resection

The removal of the part of the stomach with high concentration of gastrin (“hunger hormone”).

Gastric Bypasses

During the operation only a small part of the stomach continues functioning. The surgeons use a bypass through the middle or back part of the intestine.

Gastric balloon

The balloon is reduced to the stomach size and placed inside it using endoscopic techniques. Such procedure promotes quicker saturation.

Gastric band

Laparoscopic placement of the ring on the upper third of the stomach, which helps to get rid of the feeling of hunger more quickly.

 

Innovative minimally invasive surgeries

Gastroplication

A specialized surgery which reduces the gastric lumen by suturing the stomach. The procedure has some contraindications.

Endobarrier

A non-invasive therapeutic method for the patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity, during which a thin liner is inserted into primary and middle sections of the small intestine. The liner prevents interaction of food with these sections and is removed after the therapy.

OPTIFAST

The program conducts monitoring of the patients with the most complex forms of obesity. It helps to choose different approaches which are divided into phases.

 

After a long and thorough testing German Diabetes Association (DDG) has specified St. Martinus Krankenhaus Diabetes Center for high achievements in the treatment and care for diabetic patients.

In addition, the Clinic provides training for dietologists from the whole Germany.
