There is hope.

I see the opportunity to treat patients suffering from both benign and malignant diseases together with my experienced team and to restore the best possible quality of life after surgery as my central task.

Surgery on the internal organs is one of the most demanding operations. It requires extensive experience, great precision, and is often accompanied by significant changes in the patient’s lifestyle. The complexity and demands of such operations led me to pursue specialized training as a visceral and thoracic surgeon at the Rechts der Isar Clinic of the Technical University of Munich, one of the world’s largest and most renowned centers for visceral and thoracic surgery, specializing in abdominal and thoracic diseases.

Your specialist for surgery

“Prof. EMMANUEL received the decisive part of his surgical training and further education at the Surgical Clinic of the Technical University of Munich at the Klinikum Rechts der Isar (1997 – 2006). Under the direction of Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. mult. J. R. Siewert, an internationally renowned reference center for upper gastrointestinal surgery was established there. A large number of surgical procedures and the necessary perioperative measures (such as endoscopy, manometry, perioperative risk assessment and complication management, etc.) were part of the routine. Accordingly, this focus also played a formative role in his further training.

In 2006, he succeeded Prof. Dr. Hubert Stein – a particularly renowned representative of this school as a senior physician for many years – to the Chair of Surgery in Salzburg. After an intermezzo as Chief Physician in Linz, Prof. Emmanuel himself took over the Chair of Surgery in Salzburg and continued to live the Munich School there.”

Professional career

Dr. Rüdiger Siewert
Dr. Rüdiger Siewert
Training at the highest level

In addition, the management of the Klinikum Rechts der Isar was then under the responsibility of Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. mult. Jörg Rüdiger Siewert, who was already one of the best-known and most renowned esophageal and gastric surgeons in the world at the time. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. mult. Jörg Rüdiger Siewert established the classification of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction, which was adopted by the UICC as a separate tumor entity. The so-called AEG classification of adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus according to Siewert has found its way into all textbooks and large, specialized clinics worldwide. During this time, my passion for esophageal and gastric surgery was kindled and I was trained at the highest international level.
