The Division of Gynaecology provides up-to-date diagnostics, medical treatment, and surgical interventions. Experienced physicians counsel all patients thoroughly about their diseases and treatment options. The physicians and the nursing staff care for the patients in the outpatient and inpatient clinics with expertise and compassion.
