"From the bottom of my heart I want to thank Professor Gross, as well as all the staff of the Asclepios clinic in Hamburg for their high professionalism, efficiency, sensitivity and attention to patients
From the bottom of my heart I want to thank Professor Gross, as well as all the staff of the Asclepios clinic in Hamburg for their high professionalism, efficiency, sensitivity and attention to patients.
About a month ago left an application on the site bookimed, within an hour I was contacted by coordinator Katerina, immediately offered several clinics specializing in oncourology. The choice fell on Asclepios in Hamburg, in particular, Professor Gross.
Within a week, thanks to Katerina's efforts, prof. Gross, determined the tactics of treatment and already in a week there was immediate operation. There were some doubts that the nephrectomy could be performed laparoscopically, but the golden hands of prof. Gross know their business. The postoperative period went smoothly, recovered quickly.
During the week of the stay, there were no complaints about the work of the staff: attentive, sensitive and affable. Conditions are more than comfortable. The language barrier was not a problem due to the well-coordinated work of the translators Lydia Goncharenko and Vladimir Fissenko.
Separately, I want to once again express my gratitude to coordinator Katerina, who was always in touch, quickly resolved all sorts of difficulties.
Excellent experience.
Well priced and efficient service.
Dr was great and very reassuring. Had a lipoma removed which was very quick and pain free.
Would definitely recommend the clinic and the staff.

We did a circumcision operation on my son. The doctor is wonderful. One of the best surgeons in Turkey. An interpreter was provided and the whole team was very good. Enjoyed the whole experience. 😊
The level and competence of the doctor and medical staff.
Fantastisk bra opplevelse..Blei henta på flyplassen kjørt til klinikken. Hotellet ligger i nærheten .Det var trygt å man har kontakt med klinikken undere hele oppholdet .Dette kan jeg virkelig anbefale. Jeg hadde neck lift å hadde planlagt å ta nedre facelift men legen anbefalte å heller ta over og under øye da jeg er 55år å hadde tunge øyelokk. .Er så utrolig glad for jeg lyttet til hans anbefalinger å det kostet mindre en forventet.. Resultatet bare nå etter 11dager er utrolig.Jeg er så fornøyd..
Tryggheten etter operasjonen å hotellet i nærheten jeg kunne ta kontaktes 24t i døgnet hvis jeg hadde spørsmål
Litt bedre engelsk talende sykepleier . Men det gikk fint med Google translate så jeg hadde ingen problemer med å bli forstått

All You Need to Know about Nephrectomy
Nephrectomy - what is it?
A nephrectomy is the surgical removal of a kidney. This is a radical procedure that is performed strictly under general anesthesia. If it is possible to leave part of the kidney, the doctor performs an incomplete nephrectomy or resection . It is important to know that this operation is possible only if the second kidney is absolutely healthy.
Types of nephrectomy
Depending on the method of carrying out, nephrectomy is divided into several types:
open nephrectomy;
laparoscopic surgery;
nephrectomy with robotic da Vinci system.
Open (cavitary) nephrectomy
Abdominal removal of the kidney is performed through an oblique incision in the lumbar region, the patient lies on a healthy side. By dissecting the tissues in layers, the surgeon reaches the kidney and separates it from the fatty capsule. Next, the organ is brought to the surface, the doctor bandages the ureter with adjacent vessels and excised them together with the renal pedicle. Having freed the organ from fixation, the surgeon removes it, sutures the surgical field in layers and applies a sterile bandage.
The duration of an open nephrectomy is 2-3 hours.
Laparoscopic kidney removal
The surgeon makes 3-4 punctures on the anterior and lateral surfaces of the abdominal wall (each 1 cm in diameter). Through them, a special instrument is inserted - a laparoscope with a camera for visualization and control of the operation. The doctor removes the kidney with the renal pedicle, ureter and blood vessels.
Laparoscopic nephrectomy is technically much more complicated than open surgery, but it has a number of advantages :
short rehabilitation period;
reduced postoperative pain syndrome;
absence of a large suture/scar in the patient.
Robotic surgery with Da Vinci
Specialists of foreign clinics are increasingly performing nephrectomy using the Da Vinci robotic unit . First of all, with its help, it is possible to carry out the most organ-preserving operation - to remove only a part of the affected kidney.
Today, the Da Vinci robot is the “gold standard” for nephrectomy. In the course of its implementation, the doctor controls the "hands" of the robot and makes punctures no larger than 1 cm. The duration of the robotic operation is about 2 hours, and the subsequent stay in the hospital is a maximum of 3 days.
Benefits of robotic nephrectomy with Da Vinci :
minimal blood loss and trauma during surgery;
low likelihood of complications;
short rehabilitation period (3-4 days), reduced pain syndrome;
