What Strahlentherapie Bergedorf/Harburg does

Strahlentherapie Bergedorf/Harburg (legal entity: Praxis für Strahlentherapie Harburg Dr. med. Jürgen Heide; doing business as Strahlentherapien Hamburg) is a physician-owned group practice for radiation oncology founded by Dr. med. Jürgen Heide in Hamburg, Germany, operating three locations in Hamburg-Harburg (Stader Straße, opened September 2012; Veritaskai, opened 2023) and Hamburg-Bergedorf (Am Schilfpark, opened October 2019). The practice delivers radiation therapy for malignant tumor diseases (breast, prostate, colorectal, lung, head and neck cancers, oligometastatic disease) and selected benign conditions (arthrosis, heel spurs, Achilles tendon irritation, sports injuries), alongside palliative radiation therapy.

The technical platform centers on Varian TrueBeam linear accelerators (latest generation) supported by Toshiba Large Bore CT for planning, Brainlab ExacTrac Dynamic for image-guided patient positioning, GammaMed afterloading devices for brachytherapy, and the Eclipse treatment planning / Aria oncology information system stack. The full range of modern external-beam techniques is offered: IMRT, VMAT, IGRT, respiratory-gated (Atemtriggerung) delivery, and stereotactic radiation. Quality is managed under DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 certified by TÜV Rheinland, and the practice maintains active research interest in radiomics-based personalization of radiotherapy using radiological biomarker signatures.

The business model is service-based and reimbursed through the German statutory (GKV) and private (PKV) health insurance systems under the Kassenarztliche Vereinigung Hamburg (KVHH), with revenue tied to treatment courses (consultations, CT planning, and radiation fractions). Patient acquisition is entirely referral-driven, anchored by partnerships with Asklepios Klinik Harburg and Helios Mariahilf Klinik Hamburg plus the regional niedergelassene Ärzte network. The practice employs approximately 36 staff (8 physicians, 7 physicists, 14 MTRA radiology technologists, 7 medical assistants) and treats roughly 80 patients per day across its three sites, serving a southern Hamburg catchment of approximately 500,000 residents. There is no outside capital, no parent company, and no public listing; the practice is wholly physician-owned.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves9 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Emerging players

• CyberKnife Centrum Hamburg: Specialized stereotactic radiosurgery center in the greater Hamburg area using CyberKnife technology. Competes for a subset of high-precision stereotactic cases (head/body SRS/SBRT) that overlap with the subject's stereotactic offering, but is a single-modality specialist rather than a full-service radiation oncology practice.

Direct peers

• Radiologische Allianz Hamburg: Hamburg-based network of radiology and radiation therapy practices providing outpatient services including radiotherapy. Geographic and business-model overlap with the subject, but typically weighted toward diagnostic imaging rather than therapeutic radiation oncology.
• Med 360° AG: One of Germany's largest MVZ networks for radiology, radiation oncology, and nuclear medicine, operating multiple outpatient radiation therapy centers. Closest scaled private-practice peer to the subject — same outpatient MVZ/private-practice model, similar technology stack, and a comparable regional multi-site growth strategy.
• MVZ Prof. Dr. Uhlenbrock & Partner: Large German MVZ network providing outpatient radiology and radiation oncology services across multiple federal states. Comparable outpatient private-practice model with linear-accelerator-based treatment offerings, competing for the same German private-practice segment.

Broad incumbents

• Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE): UKE operates a Klinik für Strahlentherapie & Radioonkologie and is the leading academic radiation oncology provider in Hamburg. Competes with the subject practice for complex cases and university-affiliated referrals, with broader specialty and research capabilities but typically less convenient geographic access for southern Hamburg patients.
• Sana Kliniken AG: Major German private hospital operator with oncology/radiotherapy service lines across multiple federal states. Represents a potential consolidator/competitor in the outpatient private radiation oncology space via MVZ structures, comparable in scale ambition but very different in delivery model.
• Helios Mariahilf Klinik Hamburg: Helios Mariahilf is a named cooperation partner of the subject practice and operates its own hospital infrastructure in Hamburg-Harburg, located just hundreds of meters from the subject's Stader Straße site. As a large private hospital chain, it represents both a referral source and a potential consolidator/competitor in outpatient radiation oncology.
• Albertinen-Krankenhaus Hamburg: Albertinen-Krankenhaus, part of the Immanuel Albertinen Diakonie group, runs a Strahlentherapie department in Hamburg. Comparable hospital-based radiation oncology provider serving the broader Hamburg catchment, with overlapping but not directly neighborhood-competitive footprint.
• Asklepios Klinik Altona: Asklepios Altona operates hospital-based radiation oncology in Hamburg and is explicitly referenced in the subject's market context as a previous referral destination for southern Hamburg patients. Large hospital-network incumbent with broader oncology services but centralized, less accessible location compared to the subject's three neighborhood sites.

Regional players

• Strahlentherapie Bonn-Rhein-Sieg: Private radiation oncology practice group in the Bonn/Rhein-Sieg region operating multiple sites with modern linear accelerators. Closest regional analog to the subject's private multi-site model in another part of Germany, but geographically non-overlapping.
