Patient information
Literature | Brochures | Flyers
Improving knowledge about the disease among non-affected persons and patients is a prerequisite for empowering those affected to participate in treatment decisions and learn to live better with them.
From the wealth of information and educational material available, we have compiled a small selection of specialist information, patient brochures and flyers as well as current guidelines on all aspects of gynecology and obstetrics, which are subject to regular updates and are based on scientific standards.
