Our Story – The Apheresis Center
When Markus fell ill at the end of 2020 after contracting Covid and his life was taken away from him through a severe case of Long Covid, he, his family and friends already had lost hope of a recovery when a therapy in Mülheim, Germany brought him back to life again. Dr. Beate Jaeger treated him with H.E.L.P. Apheresis for Long Covid. He was patient Nr. 14 in her published case study (click here for case study). He also was the first Long Covid patient ever to receive what is now known as Combination Therapy.
After his recovery, he, his best friends Constantinos Georgiou and Silke Fischer with the support of Dr. Beate Jaeger (WAZ News article on Dr Jaeger and Markus Klotz click here for news article), B.Braun and Mediprod opened the Apheresis Center in Larnaca with Dr. Irina Pavlik Marangos, who leads our medical team as our Medical Director, to give German, English, Greek and Russian speaking people access to H.E.L.P. Apheresis and Combination Therapy.
Markus is our managing director and head of research, Constantinos, former PiceWaterhouseCoopers, manages the center and finances and Silke, formerly B.Braun, as one of the leading H.E.L.P. Apheresis application experts trained our medical team in German medical standards. You will find Silke’s talk on various apheresis forms and Combination Therapy here: Click here

合作伙伴
Dr. Beate Jaeger provides invaluable data as a medical advisor to our medical team who cooperates with her by exchanging data and clinical experience. All of our H.E.L.P. Apheresis protocols are based on her work. She recently has published a larger case study about H.EL.P. Apheresis for Long Covid.
Our common current focus is to constantly find more affordable and available treatments for the patients, as H.E.L.P. Apheresis despite the great results seen in the last years also has drawbacks: costs involved/low coverage of insurances and low availability of machines in the next years.

Clinical Experience, Combination Therapy with Help Apheresis and our patients – a talk with our medical director and chief physician, Dr. Irina Pavlik Marangos
Dr. Irina as she is affectionately called by our patients and nurses has been working in research in the University Hospital Oslo for almost a decade before she decided to come back to the frontline. After having treated chronic illness sufferers for many years, there is only few symptoms and medical issues she has not come across in this field – one of the reasons no patient ever gets a questioning look from her. Only if someone under her care does not follow her doctor’s advice she will go in no time from soft as silk to pragmatic! One of her biggest strengths is to talk to patients in a non-medical language that makes everyone understand their treatment effortlessly.
