With competent advice and empathetic support, we ensure that the respective wishes and medical needs of our patients take centre stage. The gynaecology department covers all areas of women's health: We accompany you in confidence from prevention and diagnostics through to surgical procedures and the necessary aftercare.
In the Obstetrics & Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine departments, which are part of our Family Care division, we regard the family environment as a valuable resource. In the Maternity Ward, our focus is on holistic and family-oriented care. Pregnant women, women who have recently given birth, newborns and premature babies benefit from an integrative approach and a reference care system that ensures close, individual care for mother and child.

Maternity Ward
The team in the Maternity Ward will accompany you and your child in preparation for during the birth and in the first few days afterwards. Your well-being and that of your child are our top priority. We attach great importance to individually tailored and sensitive support for parents. We offer holistic care through specialised outpatient clinics such as the midwife outpatient clinic and breastfeeding outpatient clinic as well as information events on breastfeeding and a tour of the delivery room. Our aim is to give birth as naturally as possible, taking into account all safety aspects and your wishes.
Important information
The Maternity Ward
The maternity area with four well-equipped delivery rooms, including a special room for water births, is located on the 2nd floor of House 2, directly next to the operating theatre and the Maternity Ward. We have modern medical equipment and various supportive aids for the flexible organisation of the birth in a calm, relaxing atmosphere.
Individual birth care
Our aim is to leave as much space as possible for natural birth and only intervene when medically necessary. We support you in finding the best way for you to deal with labour and birth pain. If a caesarean section is necessary, we have direct access to the adjoining operating room. The presence of your partner or a loved one in the delivery room is also welcomed. If a caesarean section is necessary, the accompanying person can also stay by your side in the operating room, depending on the medical conditions. Midwives, gynaecologists and paediatricians are available to you and your child around the clock.
After the birth – the postpartum period
In the Postnatal Ward, you and your baby will be comprehensively cared for and carefully monitored after the birth. You will receive help in caring for your child and we will enable you to make a harmonious start to your life together. Experienced doctors who specialise in the care of newborns ensure a high level of safety right from the start. We actively encourage and support our patients' desire to breastfeed. The professional team tailors perinatal care to the needs of the patient and her environment – always with the aim of preserving dignity, privacy and intimacy.
Additional offers
Pain relief
We offer various methods to relieve labour pain, including acupuncture, massage, vertical birth positions, water treatments, music therapy, as well as proven medication options including epidural anaesthesia, all of which are individually tailored.
Safety and care services
To ensure health safety, a specialist in paediatrics and adolescent medicine is available at all times if necessary. This person will be consulted as necessary. In the Maternity Ward, you will receive comprehensive support in caring for and breastfeeding your child. Your newborn baby will be thoroughly examined by a paediatrician after birth and before discharge.

During your stay at the Maternity Ward, your newborn will undergo various examinations, including blood tests, an ultrasound scan of the hips and kidneys and a hearing test.

Operations
Planning and preparation of the operation
Most operations in our department are planned in advance and can therefore be well prepared. Only emergencies are excluded. You will probably be referred by a specialist after an examination and preliminary diagnosis by a registered gynaecologist. Please make an appointment for the first internal examination and discussion at the hospital by calling +43 5442 600 917310.
In the case of sudden illnesses that require immediate surgical treatment, no referral is necessary!
Anaesthesia Outpatient Clinic
As soon as the type of operation and the date of the operation have been determined, an appointment will be made at the anaesthesia outpatient clinic. Here you will receive information about the anaesthesia procedure and a specialist assessment of your personal situation. Further appointments may be required for necessary pre-operative examinations.
Admission and preparation on the day of surgery
On the day of your admission, please report to the gynaecological outpatient clinic on the 1st floor. Your documents will be checked for completeness and all necessary preparations will then be made. You will probably be admitted as an inpatient the day before the planned operation to allow sufficient time for the preoperative measures. Please remain fasting on the day of the surgery.
After the operation
Immediately after the operation, patients remain in the recovery room under close supervision before being transferred to the ward.
