Starnberg Clinic: Obstetrics Wolfratshausen is part of the network
The Starnberg clinics are a so-called “Perinatal Center Level II”.
This means that women can give birth in Starnberg from the 29th week of pregnancy.
This is made possible by a children's intensive care unit that is staffed around the clock by pediatricians and specially trained intensive care nurses.
Children with a birth weight of less than 2,500 grams make up around five percent of all newborns in Starnberg.
