It is worth noting that the hospital is characterized by its successful research activities, especially in the field of cardiovascular diseases and oncopathology. The specialists of these fields have made a significant contribution to the development of new diagnostic methods and therapeutic approaches.

The hospital diagnoses and treats more than 40,000 inpatients and about 120,000 outpatients every year. Such a large number of patients indicates the reliability and effectiveness of medical services.

Some structural units of the hospital deserve special attention. For example, the Central Department of Emergency Medical Care (the largest in Saxony-Anhalt), modern dental rooms, the Perinatal Center and the Transplant Center with a history of more than 40 years.
