Prim. Prof. Dr. Christian Sebesta
Specialist in internal medicine, gastroenterology, hepatology, hematology and oncology
“Cancer screening in the gastrointestinal tract involves little effort, has a low complication rate, is painless and extremely effective. From the age of 50, everyone should have at least one colonoscopy.”
My specialties include diseases of the blood and iron metabolism, lymph nodes and all other oncological diagnoses, as well as functional and organic diseases in gastroenterology and hepatology.
I regularly carry out endoscopies of the entire intestinal tract, i.e. gastroscopies, colonoscopies and ERCP examinations, with interventions such as polypectomies and removal of stones from the bile ducts.
As a result of my many years of hospital work, I can refer to a wealth of experience and a high number of examinations in the special fields mentioned. Your trust is in good hands with me.
