Dr. med. Mark Banysch

Dr. med. Mark Banysch represents the high level of specialisation with which modern medicine has taken healthcare to a new level. The head physician of the department of general and visceral surgery and coloproctology at Marien-Hospital Marl thus fits in perfectly with the clinic's concept: He is concerned about "offering a broad spectrum, also in the area of specialised care". So when it comes to medical excellence in intestinal surgery and proctology, complex tumour operations in the abdominal cavity or the care of hernias – Dr. Banysch and his team are considered the ideal place to go in the Ruhr region.

High-class specialist care as an expression of increasing specialisation – this is how the Department of Surgery in Marl has gained an enormous reputation throughout the region. "This includes, in particular, the surgical treatment of colorectal cancer in our certified colorectal cancer centre," says the department of general and visceral surgery and coloproctology at the Marl clinic, "whereby gentle minimally invasive techniques and the da Vinci procedure are increasingly being used here."

Studies show that highly specialised surgeons who perform certain procedures frequently have better long-term results and lower complication rates. So anyone who turns to Dr. med. Mark Banysch in Marl has already taken the first right step. In addition to this, the Marien-Hospital Marl also makes a strong impression with a 24-hour emergency stand-by service and with impressive networking as part of basic and standard care for the people in the area surrounding Marl: The hospital is part of the Katholisches Klinikums Ruhrgebiet Nord GmbH network, which is the largest hospital company in the northern Ruhr region with four operating sites and 29 specialist medical departments. And when it comes to "medicine with humanity", as it says in the guiding principle, the Marl Clinic for Surgery sets very high standards.

Bowel cancer: Great experience with colon and rectum

He is best known – especially in the northern Ruhr region – as a surgeon at the Marl Intestinal Centre, which is affiliated to the specialist department of the clinic. Colon cancer is still one of the most common malignant diseases in our latitudes. Nevertheless: In its early stages, colorectal cancer is highly curable – which speaks in favour of regular screening.

That is why Dr. med. Mark Banysch's primary concern is to detect colorectal cancer very early with a precise diagnosis and to offer people with a malignant tumour of the colon or rectum the best possible chances of recovery. This is because, in addition to early diagnosis, the positive healing process depends on qualified therapy and appropriate aftercare. Therefore, all disciplines involved in the treatment of cancer patients work together as an interdisciplinary unit under the umbrella of the Marl Intestinal Centre. Working out structured treatment concepts together with other specialists and relying on the high level of expertise – that is part of everyday life at the clinic for Dr. Banysch.

Speciality proctology: Expert in rectal diseases

As a specialist in visceral surgery with a focus on special visceral surgery, Dr Banysch also has the additional title of proctology. This makes him a specialist in all diseases of the rectum and anus region – haemorrhoids as well as anal fistulas, anal abscesses, eczema or polyps. Coccygeal fistula is also part of his range of services.

Minimally invasive surgery

Of course, this applies to all diseases in the abdominal cavity – even in the case of a hernia: If you are looking for a top-class address in the Ruhr area for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, and in the anus region, Marl is exactly the right place.
