Orthopedic Surgeon Germany

Treatment specialities:

Spine surgery, orthopaedics, disc surgery, spinal disc replacement

"Due to the vast differences between patients, treating the spine requires a great deal of treatment experience. The specific factors and the wishes of patients often determine the course of treatment, not the x-rays or MRI images"

My interest in medicine goes all the way back to my early childhood and comes from my father, who was an internist. I frequently visited my father in his office, where I learned both the technical and the human aspect of being a physician. I was particularly fascinated by the skilled way in which people in need were treated and by the ways they were shown compassion and given constructive support. In my opinion there is no other job which combines the technical and human aspects this well.

The certification as foot and ankle surgery centre (ZFS) certifies the superior quality of patient consultations, diagnostics, surgery and after-care for foot and ankle conditions and injuries at the orthopedic hospital Gelenk-Klinik, Gundelfingen.

• The quality of diagnostic procedures, surgeries and follow-up care for surgeries is well documented and proven.
• Our patients benefit from tested expert advice and thorough clarification with regard to medical matters.
