The Martini-Klinik – Prostate Cancer Centre in Germany
The Martini-Klinik is a highly specialised private clinic for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer. We offer all options for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer and care for around 5,000 outpatients annually in a prostate cancer centre certified by German Cancer Aid together with the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE). We perform the world's most complete (radical) removals of the prostate, with approximately 2,600 prostate cancer operations taking place per year.
The Martini-Klinik’s doctors and researchers have excellent international networks and have made many innovations in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer over decades of concentrated research. As a result, our patients receive the best possible individual treatment based on the latest scientific findings about prostate cancer. We are extremely proud that 98% of our inpatients would recommend the Martini-Klinik to their friends and relatives* and that an increasing number of patients from all over the world come to us for treatment in Hamburg (according to the ongoing patient survey at the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf).
We take our time with each patient – which is not a luxury service, but rather our normal way of working. In addition to medical treatment of the highest quality, personal attentiveness is very important to us. Throughout your stay, you will be personally supervised by one of the senior faculty doctors.
We recommend that every patient take the time to identify the therapy individually suited to them and the best possible clinic for it. As prostate cancer generally grows relatively slowly compared to other cancers, time is not the most important factor. The healing, continence and potency rates demonstrated by a clinic are vital for your quality of life. At the Martini-Klinik, we have been surveying all our former patients on their health and quality of life year after year since 1992. These results are primarily used by the surgeons to reflect on and optimise their personal surgical outcomes. In addition, each senior doctor has a high throughput of operations in the course of a week (4 to 8) and, as a result, the level of experience gained by our busy surgeons is immense. All this enables a quality of results that is demonstrably outstanding.
