What patients say:

  • Greta Silvana

    Super explanation, treatment and perfect result! A very pleasant appointment, from the quick appointment finding, the nice reception and the feel-good atmosphere in the waiting area to the clarification and the treatment.

    Dr. Roessing not only gave me great advice, but also explained the origin of my facial expressions - very helpful! The treatment has now been long enough to be able to say that the result is also perfect.

  • Waltraut Malich-Richel

    I can highly recommend the practice and Dr. Rippmann in particular. The other doctors and staff at the practice are just as supportive and professional.

    A clear recommendation!

  • coestei

    I am so happy with the results and would not trust any other practice with my face. Dr. Roessing is very competent, takes a lot of time and always strives for an individual, natural result. I felt very comfortable during the treatment. In addition, the whole team is super friendly and the practice is beautiful. Really a great atmosphere all round.

  • Ingo Raabe

    Competent and friendly. Super warm team! The doctors are great and even Jens at reception puts you in a good mood!

  • Claudia Pasch

    I felt very well advised by Dr. Roessing and I was very satisfied. After the operation I was there for 1 night (in a single room) and I was very well looked after.
    I would always seek treatment here again.

  • Seline Steger

    Dr. Roessing and Dr. Rippmann are experts in their field. They are always friendly, take their time and always fulfill my wishes. I am delighted with their work. Together with Dr. Bethge, who is also really great, they are the doctors I trust.

  • David Taylor

    I have been to several doctors for cosmetic treatments, but Dr. Roessing is an absolute expert in his field.
    He has an exceptional eye for aesthetics, takes his time and is supported by an extremely friendly and competent team.

  • R. G.

    I have been a loyal patient of Dr. Volker Rippmann since 2017. Both at his locations in Cologne, Berlin and most recently even in Zurich.

    It is simply wonderful how much empathy Dr. Rippmann shows and how much time he always takes for my questions and concerns. The results of the operations were always as he had predicted in advance. He is a ray of hope in this all too often sensationalized "beauty scene".

    A luminary in his field. Absolutely serious and recommendable. An old-school doctor with the encouraging smile of an open-hearted and kind person.
    Many thanks to him and his super-hearted team.

  • Elcin Kaplan

    I had a breast reduction with Dr. Roessing and I am more than satisfied. You feel very comfortable and in good hands right from the start. Everyone in the practice is very kind and courteous.

    My expectations were far exceeded. I now feel much better and healthier and no longer have any restrictions.

    Thank you very much Dr. Roessing! You have done a great job!
