PD Dr. med. Daniel Dindo is a truly exceptional specialist who has been awarded the Leading Medicine Guide seal of approval: He has dedicated himself entirely to treating patients with diseases of the intestine and rectum. This makes him one of the foremost experts in areas such as the surgical treatment of colorectal tumors and diverticulitis—as well as therapies for diseases of the rectum and anus, such as hemorrhoids, anal fistulas, coccygeal fistulas, and other anal conditions. PD Dr. Dindo is also one of the most sought-after experts internationally on the sensitive topic of fecal incontinence. He has now received the coveted Leading Medicine Guide seal—for the first time!
Zurich, November 2021 – A specialist who impresses with outstanding achievements in just two areas: PD Dr. med. Daniel Dindo is a prime example of high-performance specialized medicine, which is making enormous strides precisely through its consistent focus on its core area. There is no question about it: This proven international specialist in proctology absolutely deserves the Leading Medicine Guide seal! With his rare expertise, he has made the practice for intestinal and rectal diseases—located as a Surgical Center at the Hirslanden Clinic in Zurich—the premier destination for anyone suffering from conditions in this field.
PD Dr. Dindo focused on the treatment of intestinal and rectal diseases early in his career. Ever since he was certified as a European Specialist in Coloproctology by the European Board of Surgery Qualification in 2008, his medical passion has been devoted entirely to this discipline. With his U.S. medical license and his appointment as a clinical assistant professor, he already had extensive experience with surgeries throughout the entire abdominal cavity—but he had long since decided on “his field.” There was also a specific reason for this: he wanted to make a difference in terms of medical progress in this area.
First Recognition: Extensive Experience in a Highly Specialized Field
Whether it involves hemorrhoids, anal fistulas, or anal changes caused by viral diseases—PD Dr. med. Daniel Dindo is familiar with all aspects of diagnosis and the wide range of treatment options. He is internationally recognized as a specialist in a taboo subject that affects an estimated five percent of people in Switzerland: When it comes to anal continence problems—that is, the inability to control bowel movements or flatulence—many people rely on the expertise of this specialist. Whether this form of incontinence results from age-related weakening of the sphincter and pelvic floor muscles or is triggered by neurological disorders such as diabetes—Dr. Daniel Dindo has long been familiar with all its manifestations and also impresses with his tremendous empathy.
Another factor in the awarding of the seal of approval by the leading medical specialist portal was the significance of PD Dr. Dindo’s contributions to global research. Not only does he consistently demonstrate his exceptional standing in international proctology through high-impact publications, but he also continually sets new standards in the continuing education of other proctology specialists.
Proctology throughout the country benefits from this commitment to continuing education and training. This is also evident in the numerous observational visits and consultations by medical colleagues who regularly seek him out at the Enzenbühl wing of the Hirslanden Clinic to expand their knowledge. In this way, the Zurich-based institution Proctomed has, within just a few years, become what it is today—an internationally sought-after center for all matters related to the colon and rectum.
A positive side effect: easy to find thanks to its online presence
The awarding of the “LMG Seal” thus also underscores the outstanding position that PD Dr. Dindo holds both in Switzerland and internationally. One positive effect of receiving this award for the first time: Through the highly visited expert portal, potential patients can now find the right specialist much more easily—and this applies to the entire German-speaking world. This is because PD Dr. med. Daniel Dindo is prominently listed there as a renowned specialist.
