The Heart Center's volume and outcomes data place it among Berlin's leading cardiac facilities. Oncology at Helios Berlin-Buch provides comprehensive cancer care through interdisciplinary tumor conferences, precision oncology with molecular diagnostics, immunotherapy protocols, and minimally invasive surgical oncology. The hospital's radiation oncology department is equipped with modern linear accelerators for IMRT, VMAT, and stereotactic treatments. The proximity to the Max Delbrück Center enables patient access to innovative cancer research and clinical trials. Orthopedics is one of the hospital's strongest departments, with high volumes of hip and knee replacement surgery using computer-navigated and robotic-assisted techniques, sports medicine and arthroscopy, shoulder surgery, and hand surgery. The department's outcomes are regularly benchmarked against national standards, consistently demonstrating excellent results.
