Hünfeld's clinic is making progress: Better supply through new surgeons

On May 9, 2025, the Helios St. Elisabeth Clinic in Hünfeld and other locations in the region took significant steps to expand their vascular surgical department. The goal is a comprehensive improvement in patient care, which is to be realized through technological and personnel increase at the Hünfeld location.

The previous managing director, Sebastian Mock, will hand over the handover by the end of July and switch to the Hersfeld-Rotenburg Clinic on August 1, 2025. Mock is recognized for his strategic contributions to health care in East Hesse. The restructuring also includes a change in the vascular surgical team, where a new senior physician as well as the chief physician Bogdan Mircea and several doctors are deducted from the Helios Clinic Oberwald in Grebenhain to further strengthen the department in Hünfeld.
