Catharina Ziekenhuis

Catharina Ziekenhuis is the largest general hospital in Eindhoven. It is located on Michelangelolaan in Woensel. The Catharina Hospital is a top clinical and top referral teaching hospital. Due to the lack of an academic hospital within a short distance, it provides highly specialized care at an academic level. Its supraregional focal points are oncology and cardiovascular diseases.

It is one of the eight non-university hospitals authorized for open-heart surgery. As a training center for doctors and nurses, it has close ties with Maastricht University Medical Center Plus and Eindhoven University of Technology. As a result of this collaboration, 19 professors are employed at the hospital, including Lukas Dekker, Volkher Scharnhorst, Ignace de Hingh, Chairman of the Board Nardo van der Meer, Huib van Vliet, Misha Luyer, and Pim Tonino.
