“I have to say this time i really enjoyed going to the doctor. I called the practice and got an appointment the next day. That was super helpful because I was I was really in pain. When I got there the girls at the reception were extremely friendly and it only took 5 minutes waiting till I saw Doctor Klingenberg. After I told him what had happened he asked me a couple more questions and had a proper look at my knee. Then he treated me that day and another time a couple of days later and now the problems and the pain is gone. Now a couple of years later I went to him with another problem and again he was very friendly and super helpful.”

“Eleven days ago, I underwent stem cell therapy for my knees and the base of my thumb. The complex individual steps were explained very well. The staff, as well as the doctors, were extremely friendly, competent, and exceptionally empathetic. I felt in excellent hands. Since the success of the procedure is only fully noticeable after up to eight weeks, I can report that the healing from the procedures is progressing very well. I commend the excellent process at this clinic.”

“Although my treatment is not yet complete, the appointments I've had so far with the relevant specialists on site demonstrate a high level of competence, extensive expertise, and excellent service. The team is well-coordinated, friendly, and personable, and they cater to each patient and their individual needs. To date, I'm very satisfied.”

“The Beta Clinic in Bonn is absolutely recommended. From reception to nurses to doctors, there is extremely friendly, top-notch advice and treatment. I had stem cells administered for my knee and everything was explained very well to me and it was ultimately a painless treatment. Many thanks to Ms. Seidlitz, Dr. Sowada and Dr. Klingenberg and the helping hands.”
