Pediatric Cardiology Clinic

Your child's heart is in good hands. At Kinderarzthaus, we offer specialised pediatric cardiology clinics for the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of heart and circulatory conditions in infants, children, and adolescents.

Our pediatric cardiologists have many years of experience in diagnosing and managing both congenital and acquired heart diseases.
