About the Department of Oncology and Palliative Care at WEGE Clinic Bonn

The Department of Oncology and Palliative Care at the WEGE Clinic Bonn provides palliative treatment for patients with incurable diseases. The goal of the department's physicians is to alleviate the symptoms of the disease and improve the quality of life. The department's specialists take an individual approach to each patient, always respecting the patient's wishes. A competent multidisciplinary team, consisting of palliative care specialists, nurses, psycho-oncologists, physiotherapists and social workers, works here for the benefit of the patients. The department is headed by Dr. med. Henning Cuhls.

The department's doctors mostly admit patients with incurable cancers, neurological pathologies, various types of dementia, diseases of the heart, lungs, kidneys and liver. The focus is on patients with advanced cancers. In addition to therapeutic measures, psycho-oncologists intensively work with the patient (if necessary, and with his relatives).
