The doctor's focus is on restoring the external shape of the body and disturbed bodily functions as a result of accidents, tumors, and congenital malformations.

The treatments are divided into four pillars. These include reconstructive surgery, aesthetic surgery, hand surgery, and burn surgery. Patients are optimally cared for by experienced and competent medical and nursing teams. A matter of course and a major concern is the interdisciplinary cooperation with all departments of the clinic, which should also contribute to the mental well-being of the patients. The extensive range of services includes reconstructive surgery, skin soft tissue surgery (removal of skin tumors, removal of benign skin changes, scar correction), amputation surgery (special amputations, residual limb lengthening measures, revision and reconstruction operations on the amputation residual limb, wound treatment, tumor surgery, surgery in the face, head and neck area as well as the breast surgery.

In aesthetic surgery, corrections and plastics as well as corrections of the breast shape are carried out. To restore the functional integrity of the hand, hand surgery is based on broad clinical experience. In addition to the treatment of burns, post-bariatric surgery is used to perform liposuction or reshaping of the body surface in problem areas.

Due to the optimal infrastructure of the clinic of the Alfried Krupp Hospital in Essen-Steele, outpatient, as well as inpatient treatments, are offered. Aesthetic procedures are performed exclusively by specialists.
