Offer

The Clinic for Infectiology & Hospital Hygiene cares for inpatients with mostly serious infectious diseases. Our clinic is also involved in the care of stem cell transplant patients and patients with foreign body infections or complex lung infections in USB centers. In outpatient consultations, we care for patients with HIV/AIDS and with unexplained or complex infection problems, whether caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. We also look after patients who require outpatient intravenous antibiotic therapy (OPAT).
