Our hospital provides treatment for patients with cardiovascular disease. Multidisciplinary teams work side by side in our cardiac surgery, cardiology, anesthesiology and intensive care departments. The MEDICLIN Heart Center Lahr is committed to providing innovative treatments and individual, personalised care.

The MEDICLIN Heart Center Lahr was founded in 1994 and has 75 beds. 320 staff members work tirelessly on the wards, in operating theaters and the administration to ensure our patients’ wellbeing. Every year, we treat more than 3,500 cardiac patients from Germany and abroad. Treatments range from routine interventions to complex cases.

MEDICLIN Heart Center Lahr is consistently named in the “Focus Gesundheit” magazine’s list of top hospitals. Its cardiology and cardiac surgery departments received Germany’s leading clinics award in 2021.

Under its roof, MEDICLIN Heart Center Lahr combines Cardiac, Vascular and Thoracic Surgery, Internal Medicine and Cardiology, and Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Clinic.

Patients benefit from personalised treatment concepts, state-of-the art diagnostics, innovative and minimally-invasive procedures as well as interdisciplinary collaboration through years of experience.

Cardiac, Vascular and Thoracic Surgery

At MEDICLIN Heart Center Lahr we provide the entire spectrum of modern heart surgery with state-of-the-art diagnostics and the latest medical equipment. Highly qualified and specialized cardiac surgeons supported by an expert nursing team ensure that every patient receives best quality treatment and customised care. This also includes the treatment of complex cases using minimally invasive procedures. If possible we choose non-invasive (without surgery) over invasive techniques (with surgery). If an operation is necessary we prefer minimally invasive, catheter-assisted procedures whenever possible.

Internal Medicine and Cardiology

In the Department of Cardiology, we diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease using all state-of-the-art invasive and non-invasive methods. An emergency team is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our Chest Pain Unit and cardiac catheterization team are available 24/7/365 for all patients suffering heart attacks.
