Dr. Marcus Wiemer has been appointed professor by the Ruhr University Bochum. The extraordinary professorship has Dr. Marcus Wiemer for his commitment to the training and further education of young doctors and for his efforts to implement the latest scientific findings in therapeutic practice.

professor dr Marcus Wiemer has introduced and established numerous new forms of therapy at the Minden University Hospital in recent years. This includes, among other things, the introduction of catheter interventions on the mitral and aortic valves and transcatheter aortic valve implantation, which he regularly carries out in cooperation with the Heart and Diabetes Center (HDZ NRW). He also successfully established rotablation and lithotripsy of the coronary vessels in Minden.
