Reception:

Hello, welcome to the Földi Clinic.

Managing Director

The Földi Clinic is one of the leading clinics in the field of lymphology, and is well known far beyond Germany's borders.

Patient (female)

So when I come to the Földi Clinic, it's always a kind of time-out that I take for myself.

Therapist

The patient is the focus first and foremost, yes, and the problems the patient has. I think carefully about who needs what.

Managing Director

I also find it very remarkable what Professor and Mrs Földi have built up here; it is their life's work, you can feel that.

Prof. Földi

What is truly sensible, what is genuinely helpful for the patients.

Patient

For me, my first stay at the Földi Clinic was a game-changer.

Therapist

We don't treat oedemas, we treat patients.

Patient (female)

Yes, I just feel comfortable here, and that's already worth a lot.

Managing Director

It's wonderful to see how passionate the staff are and how they consider what we can do for the patient so that they feel comfortable and are happy to come here.

Head of Nursing

I find the communication with one another, the exchange between colleagues, and also the transparency and togetherness simply important.

Prof. Földi

And this working atmosphere is about being there for one another, and then we can all be there for the patients.

Senior Physician

To truly restore life, restore quality, to help patients back into their lives where they feel comfortable, that is truly magnificent.

Patient (female)

That's what I take away from here: regaining self-confidence, standing tall again and saying, 'Come on, life can go on.'

Further information

Treatment

Embedded in an internal medicine overall concept, Complex Physical Decongestion Therapy (KPE) is today the recognised foundation of conservative lymphoedema treatment. Prof. Dr. Michael and Prof. Dr. Etelka Földi have devoted their lives to lymphology. The expertise of the Földi team is in demand worldwide.

We are committed to providing the best possible treatment to people affected by lymphological conditions. Day after day. We live lymphology — since 1979.

Further information

Patients

The Földi Clinic treats patients with diseases of the lymphatic system of all severities. Your treating physician (usually your GP) submits an application for rehabilitation to the responsible funding body, requesting that you be treated at the Földi Clinic. For those in employment the pension insurance provider is usually responsible; otherwise it is the health insurance fund.
