When a tumour of the breast or of the female organs is involved, what matters most to the patient is that one doctor stays with the case — from confirming the diagnosis through the operation to drug therapy. Professor Sabine Keim works in exactly that way: gynaecological oncology, breast surgery and operative gynaecology come together in her as one speciality.
Who she is and where she practises
Sabine Keim is a specialist in gynaecology and obstetrics and a professor. Since October 2024 she has held a chair in gynaecology and obstetrics at the Medical School Hamburg, and since 2021 she has lectured at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.
Since December 2025 she has been chief physician (Chefärztin) for senology — that is, breast disease — gynaecological oncology, and pelvic floor and incontinence surgery at the Dr. Geisenhofer women’s clinic in Munich. In January 2026 she founded her own centre, DIE GYNÄKOLOGIE — Zentrum für Frauenmedizin und Integrative Onkologie.
One point worth noting if you are searching for her: from 2016 to 2025, for almost ten years, Sabine Keim headed the clinic for gynaecology and obstetrics at Helios Klinikum München West and its interdisciplinary centre for breast and gynaecological cancer. Many directories still list her at that address — those entries are out of date.
What she does specifically
Her first field is surgery for breast tumours. Keim holds the status of certified senior breast surgeon (Senior-Mammaoperateurin) to the standard of the German Cancer Society: this certificate confirms not “skill in general” but a regular volume of such operations and participation in quality audits.
The second is gynaecological oncology: tumours of the ovaries, uterus and cervix, where the plan almost always combines surgery with drug therapy rather than relying on one alone. The third is operative gynaecology, including robotic surgery, and pelvic floor surgery for prolapse and incontinence.
A distinct part of her professional experience is setting up certified cancer centres to German Cancer Society rules. That is the behind-the-scenes work thanks to which a difficult case is reviewed by a board rather than by one doctor alone.
How we arrange an appointment
We ask you to send the discharge letters, histology and images you have, translate them into German and forward them to the clinic. In return you receive information on what examinations will be needed on site, how long the appointment will take and what it will cost. The clinic invoices you directly — we take no part in payments for treatment. An interpreter is present at the appointment.
This material is for information only and does not replace a consultation with a doctor. Whether treatment is possible, what it will involve and what it will achieve can be determined only after an examination at the clinic in person.
