Strong brands in medicine: a combination which surely makes Deutscher Ärzteverlag unique.

On the one hand, this ensures wide target group coverage enabling opinion leaders and decision makers to be addressed by professional publications such as Deutsches Ärzteblatt (German Medical Journal) – the leading specialist title in the area of medicine. On the other hand, subject-specific titles and special issues and special productions, topic-based specials and online products ensure a particularly precise peak and target group address without coverage loss.
