SKInstitute of predictive and personalized medicine (IPPM)
For more than 10 years, we have been helping our patients improve their health using the latest diagnostic and therapeutic procedures focused on the intestinal flora and digestive system.
Who are we?
Were it not for the fact that every patient is completely unique, medicine would be just a scientific routine rather than an artform.
Why chooseIPPM
An individual approach, cutting-edge treatment methods and comprehensive treatment aimed at addressing the root cause of your health issues is what characterizes the IPPM clinic. All of this under the supervision of our experienced clinical staff in modern facilities. These are just a few of the reasons why, over the last 10 years, hundreds of satisfied patients from around the world have trusted us with their care.
Microbiome analysis
The first step in solving a problem is to identify its cause. The IPPM Gut Microbiome Analysis is a comprehensive test that allows us to determine the exact composition of your gut flora and reveal any potential deficiencies. Among other things, the results of the analysis will help you find out which types of gut bacteria are present in your digestive tract, whether they are present in sufficient quantities, and most importantly, how the composition of your gut flora can affect your overall health and your body's ability to metabolize nutrients. Personalized recommendations based on your results and an online consultation with our experts come included with the test.
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)
Damage to the gut flora (gut dysbiosis) can contribute to a wide range of health problems, from intestinal discomfort to chronic fatigue. By far the most effective method of treating gut dysbiosis is fecal microbial transplantation (FMT). FMT treatment consists of administering complete intestinal flora obtained from the stool of a healthy donor into the colon of the patient. This allows us to quickly, effectively and painlessly "repair" even severely damaged intestinal flora, for example in patients after a long course of antibiotics, or in patients with a wide variety of health conditions. IPPM is one of the oldest clinics in Europe that provide fecal transplantation and we are a leader in this field not only in Slovakia, but also in the whole of Central Europe.
The IPPM clinic was the first private healthcare facility in Central Europe to provide fecal microbial transplantation to patients. We have been providing FMT at our clinic since 2017 and have provided this treatment to hundreds of satisfied patients from all around the world over the past 8 years. IPPM Clinic therefore ranks among the global leaders in the field of providing fecal transplants.
The safety of our FMT implants and capsules is of paramount importance to us. We have built up our comprehensive donor selection and testing protocol based on the latest scientific findings and best practices for FMT donor banks.
The FMT clinical team consists of experienced medical staff, including doctors and nurses.
What do our patients say about us?
Very professional staff and excellent communicators. Hope that we will see positive results from treatment at this clinic.
We researched FMT for a year before bringing our son to this clinic. We are from the US so this is not a trip we made on a whim. From our very first contact with the clinic (email), to our video chat with the founder, to our last visit in clinic, we have been nothing but impressed. The staff are friendly, spoke English, the clinic is very clean, and we never had to wait for our appointment.
We knew the results might not happen right away and were shocked to see that our son's skin improved during our 2 weeks in Slovakia. Our son is 3 and HATES being at any type of doctor's office. He sceams and cries the moment we walk in. Here he was calm and happy and the staff were all very kind to us. We were so happy to have Ivana (the nurse) there with us each step of the way. She speaks very clear English and answered all of our questions. The FMT treatment was quick and painless and we highly reccomend this clinic for your FMT needs. I will also add that this is the only clinic that would help our son due to his age, and we were beyond thrilled to find them!
