St. Antonius and St. Joseph Hospital Association

The geography of the association of Catholic clinics "St. Antonius and St. Joseph”, covers almost the entire region of “Bergisches Land”. In this case, we are talking not just about centuries-old traditions. The St. Joseph Clinic, which has already celebrated its 150th anniversary, is the oldest Catholic clinic in the region.

The distinctive profiles of these clinics have evolved over the course of history. For over a century, the medical practitioners at Vogelsangstraße Clinic have ardently dedicated themselves to women's healthcare, nurturing the joy of motherhood. Throughout this extensive duration, they have imparted their invaluable wealth of experience to subsequent generations, fostering a tradition that flourishes within the esteemed St. Antonius School of Obstetrics—an eminent educational institution of unrivaled stature throughout Germany.

The origins of the Petrus clinic also take us back to the distant 19th century, when the monastic order of St. Charles Borromaus was founded by the Catholic community of St. Antonius, who cared for the sick. And to this day, among the attending medical staff of the clinic, you can meet nuns who give their whole soul to patients. Occupying a leading position among the many medical institutions available today, the clinic allows the breadth of the range of medical services offered, as well as in-depth specialization in two fundamental areas of medicine that have historically developed here - therapy and surgery.

Despite its extensive heritage, the clinic steadfastly embraces modern methods of treatment and diagnosis. The utilization of minimally invasive surgery techniques by specialists at the outpatient gynecology center enables patients to depart the clinic on the same day of their operation.
