About the department
The Department of Endocrinology and Diabetology at the DKD HELIOS Clinic Wiesbaden offers the full range of medical services in the fields of its competence. The doctors of the medical facility specialize in the treatment of hormonal imbalances, metabolic disorders, obesity and diabetes mellitus. An important clinical focus is on nutritional counseling and lifestyle recommendations for the patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and obesity. The department's medical team is proud of excellent results in the field of hormone replacement therapy in elderly patients, as well as in patients with adrenal diseases, osteoporosis and thyroid diseases. The doctors working in the department follow the current clinical protocols and apply modern treatment methods, which contributes to the achievement of the desired treatment results. The Chief Physician of the department is Dr. med. Cornelia Jaursch-Hancke.
The department's endocrinologists admit patients with all pathologies of the endocrine organs, including the thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands and pituitary gland. The specialists provide only conservative treatment. If the patient needs a surgical intervention, the surgeons from the Department of Endocrine Surgery will be involved in the therapeutic process. Endocrine cancers are treated in collaboration with oncologists, radiation therapists and chemotherapists. The department's medical team prefers an integrated approach to treatment that combines drug therapy, diet therapy, physiotherapy and hormone replacement therapy (if clinically indicated). The required complex of therapeutic measures is selected strictly individually. The doctors working in the department focus on the patients with impaired pituitary function, goiter, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroiditis, osteoporosis, osteopenia, arterial hypertension, lipid metabolism disorders, etc.
The department's team of diabetologists has been taking care of the health of patients with diabetes mellitus since 1994. During this time, the medical facility has treated more than 3,000 patients. Diabetes mellitus is an incurable disease, and therefore the main task of doctors is to control its course in order to prevent the progression and development of complications. The classic treatment regimen consists of insulin therapy or taking oral antidiabetic drugs, diet therapy and physical activities. Particular attention is paid to teaching patients to live with pathology, and therefore the department conducts 3 special training courses. The first focuses on diet therapy and oral antidiabetic drugs, while the second focuses on insulin therapy. The third one is devoted to intensive insulin therapy. The department holds many individual consultations, during which the attending physician personally communicates with the patient and tells him about further therapeutic measures.

About hospital
The DKD HELIOS Clinic Wiesbaden has long made a name for itself in the international medical arena by introducing an optimal model of medical care, combining the use of the most advanced medical technologies, the experience of highly qualified doctors and impeccable quality of patient care. The medical facility first opened its doors to patients in 1970. The world famous Mayo Clinic Rochester in America served as a model for the design of the medical complex. Since the foundation of the clinic, the main direction of its activities has been comprehensive diagnostics of complex diseases integrated into an interdisciplinary treatment concept. Today, an integral part of clinical practice is also preventive diagnostics aimed at the early detection of pathological changes in the human body. In recent years, the clinic has been actively developing the direction of surgery, in which it has significantly succeeded. The clinic enjoys a reputation as one of the best medical facilities in Europe in the field of endocrine and colorectal surgery, as well as in hernia repair surgery.
The clinic has 24 specialized departments. Each of them offers a team of experienced doctors, whose main value is the patient's health. The work of all doctors of the medical facility is based on a single credo – "Treat not a disease, but a patient". According to this belief, the course of treatment should be as individual as possible, taking into account the patient's physical characteristics, lifestyle, diet, emotional state, etc.
The clinic's bed capacity consists of 138 inpatient beds and 60 beds in a day hospital. Many diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are performed on an outpatient basis. The diagnostic and treatment rooms, like the operating rooms of the clinic, are equipped with state-of-the-art technology to ensure the observance of strict hygiene and safety standards. The advanced medical equipment allows detecting the slightest changes in the functioning of organs and their structure with impeccable accuracy, thanks to which doctors can diagnose complex pathologies at the very early stages. This greatly increases the chances of a successful cure.
The location of the clinic in Wiesbaden, known as one of the oldest thermal spas in Europe, is another pleasant advantage for the patients. Arriving at the clinic for a preventive diagnostic examination, one can improve his health in the healing thermal springs, as well as enjoy the sightseeing of historical monuments. The medical center is located in the immediate vicinity of the English style Spa Park founded in the distant 1852, so in the free time from medical procedures one can take a pleasant walk in the beautiful park.
