As a doctor at our clinic, you will work in a team of nursing staff, assistants, specialists and senior physicians. You will also work together with various staff from other areas, e.g. physiotherapy, art therapy and speech therapy. Our aim is for you to be able to work confidently independently, but also to be able to work out difficult diagnoses as part of a team, with a consultant or senior physician at your side as a contact person. Paediatrics requires particular skill in communicating with paediatric patients and their relatives. For them, you are not only a doctor, but also support the parents and relatives of the young patients with sufficient patience and empathy.

As a doctor at a university institution, you will be directly involved in research and teaching alongside your clinical work. It is important to us to use scientific work and clinical studies to advance the recognition of diseases and the possibilities of treatment for our patients. In addition to your further training as a specialist, we offer you the opportunity to carry out your own research and will support you if you would like to take this opportunity.
