English

Welcome to the English version of www.liebfrauenarzt.de. Our clinic of gynecology and obstetrics right in the center of Frankfurt/Main, Germany, is open year round from Monday through Friday.

Pregnancy

We take care of pregnant patients from the very beginning of pregnancy (i.e. first positive pregnancy test) throughout delivery; we also help you searching for a class of pregnancy exercise or Kegels for your pelvic floor (in your mother tongue if needed) as well as for a midwife and a hospital for your delivery.

Contraception

We assist teenage girls and grown up women choosing the right contraceptive devices, e.g. the pill, IUD, alternatives as the adhesive called Evra, the vaginal ring Nuvaring, the IUD with the hormone Levonorgestrel and so on; in case of an unwanted pregnancy you can receive the necessary pregnancy counseling (§ 218) in our practice.

Gynecology, ultrasonography and prenatal diagnosis

Part of our offer is the routine checkup including the Pap smear, gynecological ultrasound and ultrasound of the breast. During pregnancy there is the possibility of performing extra examinations besides the routine examinations, e.g. measuring the fetal nuchal translucency (NT) combined with the first trimester Screening, or performing a high resolution ultrasound around the sixth months of gestation to find out about fetal abnormalities or malformations. We also apply the Harmony Test as  a non-invasive genetic test (from the mother`s blood) for the screening on Down-Syndrome and two other chromosomal diseases (Trisomia 13, 18, 21). However no prenatal diagnostic means can guarantee a healthy baby nor can the amniocentesis. But still: the standard condition is the baby being alright!

Covid-19 has become endemic in Europe. We recommend to everybody, who has access, at least three if not four Covid-vaccinations, best with mRNA. This is particularly important for vulnerable groups as persons of more than 60 years, persons with chronic diseases, and women who want to be pregnant, or are pregnant already. These vaccinations are available with your family doctors, but not in the Liebfrauenarzt-Praxis.  In our clinic, we avoid crowded rooms, and in the cold seasons recommend the use of FFP 2 masks. The flu-shot for vulnerable groups still is possible with us.

Specialization

Dr.Gleissner speaks English fluently. If you have difficulties being understood by my employees at the first registration please let us know: ask for a recall by somebody else or book your appointment via internet.

Dr. Gleissner´s focus is obstetric care,  prenatal diagnostics and high resolution ultrasound. He is also state-approved counseling center for unwanted pregnancies (§ 218).

Only newly diagnosed pregnancies without former contact with a German obstetrician (in case of public insurance) can show up without appointment in the early afternoon shortly before 2 p.m..
