Medicine with time and experience

Dr. med. Hartmut Köppen has more than three decades of experience in internal medicine and internal diagnostics. His particular focus is on combining sound classical internal medicine with modern approaches to preventive medicine.

After working as a senior physician for functional diagnostics, he set up in private practice in Berlin in 1991 and further specialised in gastroenterological endoscopy, proctology (additional qualification in proctology) and ultrasound diagnostics. From 2012 to 2017, Dr. Köppen was a guest lecturer (profesor asociat invitat) at Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu. Since 2016, he has been developing modern concepts of internal-medicine preventive care in Leipzig – first at the Zentrum für Integrale Medizin and, since 2024, at the Beyond Med private practice.

Alongside many years of clinical work, he has completed numerous further training courses in echocardiography, duplex and Doppler ultrasound of the brain-supplying vessels, infusion therapy, preventive medicine, microbiome medicine, epigenetics and mitochondrial medicine.

Dr. Köppen is the author of medical books and publications - including Gastroenterology for practice (Thieme) and the Romanian edition Atlas of practical gastroenterology – as well as a member of various medical societies, including the German Society for Probiotic Medicine and the Medical Society for Clinical Metal Toxicology (KMT e. V.). He is also involved in the Federal Association of Medium-Sized Businesses (BVMW e. V.).
