Johann Bauersachs MD, FAHA, FESC

Prof. Bauersachs and his team are widely recognized experts in treating cardiovascular disorders and diseases. The Department of Cardiology and Angiology is at the forefront of modern patient care in the cardiovascular field and internationally known for its cutting edge research.

The Catheterization labs are staffed by specially trained physicians and nurses providing state of the art treatment for patients with heart and vascular diseases. Up to date interventional cardiology and angiology is used for the treatment of coronary and peripheral vascular disease by angioplasty and stents including the use of intravascular ultrasound and pressure wire technique. We routinely perform closure of atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO). Our Department offers the latest inventions in interventional cardiology, including transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI), treatment of mitral valve regurgitation with the MitraClip-system and the occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA) with the Watchman occlusion system.
