Health Cologne - PAN Klinik am Neumarkt

EXPERTISE
IN MEDICINE AND CARE
The three municipal hospitals of Cologne,
integrated under the firm Kliniken der
Stadt Köln gGmbH, offer a comprehensive
range of treatment services for patients
of all age groups. Acute and chronically
ill children and youth are treated at one
of Germany‘s largest medical facilities
for children, Kinderkrankenhaus Amsterdamer
Strasse. The medical teams at the
Merheim and Holweide hospitals care for
adult patients.
These medical centres regularly treat
patients from abroad (including the
United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Russia, the
USA and England) with superior results.
The hospitals are renowned for their
high quality, and sustain this level of
achievement through certifications and
quality assurance programmes. To ensure
rapid recovery and pain-free conditions
following surgery as quickly as possible,
Merheim Hospital introduced a „Quality
Management for Acute Pain Therapy“ programme,
which was recognized by TÜV
Rheinland. The hospital provides top-level
medical services and extremely competent
nursing care. The patient’s individual
needs are always the primary focus.
The spectrum of medical services corresponds
to the latest innovations in medical
sciences. The following illnesses are given

those affecting the kidneys,
