About this disease
What it is about
Multimorbidity and age correlate. The number of diseases increases significantly with age: thus, from the age of 65, most people already suffer from several chronic diseases. However, it is not only the number of diseases that is decisive, but also their consequences for everyday life.
Symptoms and consequences
As the number of diseases increases, the choice of promising therapeutic options becomes more complex. The resulting interactions become less manageable and the risk of adverse effects increases.
What we do for you

We not only treat with medication, but also incorporate various approaches to achieve an improvement in everyday life and to increase or maintain the quality of life.
