What my patients say
Patient testimonials
Surgery in Vienna – outpatient or inpatient?
If you are due to undergo a surgical procedure, you may be wondering whether it can be performed on an outpatient basis or whether inpatient admission is required. The decision depends on several factors, including the type of procedure, the patient’s state of health and the aftercare required. As a specialist in surgery in Vienna, I provide comprehensive advice to help find the best treatment option for your individual situation.
Many minor procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis at our Surgery & Endoscopy Centre 1160, including:
- Removal of lipomas, atheromas, moles and warts
- Procedures for ingrown toenails
- Treatment of anal skin tags
Larger operations require inpatient admission to hospital, including:
- Hernia surgery (inguinal hernia, umbilical hernia, incisional hernia)
- Gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy)
- Varicose vein surgery (vein surgery)
- Bowel surgery (e.g. for diverticulitis or chronic bowel disease)
- Reflux surgery (fundoplication for chronic heartburn)
- Haemorrhoid surgery, when outpatient treatment is not sufficient
When is an operation necessary?
Dr Weiner
Surgery is necessary when conservative methods are not sufficient to relieve symptoms, or when health risks are present. As an expert in surgery at Vienna 1160, I will advise you individually on the best treatment options.
Can all operations be performed minimally invasively?
Dr Weiner
Many procedures can now be performed laparoscopically, but not all. Depending on your individual situation, I will discuss the best method with you.
What risks are involved in surgical procedures?
Dr Weiner
Every operation carries certain risks, which are minimised through modern technology and experience. In a preliminary consultation at Surgery & Endoscopy Centre 1160, I will inform you in detail about the individual risks of the procedure.
How long is the recovery time after an operation?
Dr Weiner
Recovery time depends on the procedure. Minimally invasive procedures allow for faster recovery than open surgery. I support you throughout aftercare to ensure optimal recovery.
Where are the operations carried out?
Dr Weiner
Depending on the type of procedure, I operate at my practice, Surgery & Endoscopy Centre 1160, or in a hospital. Inpatient procedures take place at Krankenhaus Göttlicher Heiland Wien.
