Dr med Thomas Schneider Orthopaedic Specialist, Consultant for Specialised Knee and Ankle, Hip and Shoulder SurgeryDr. med Thomas Schneider, Orthopaedic Specialist, Foot and Ankle, Hip Surgery: Being honest and sincere are core values every physician should show patients.

When I was 14, I had a friend whose father was a doctor. He always advocated for his patients, was empathetic and dedicated. It's largely because of him that I decided to go into medicine. He's still a role model for me today.

Working at Gelenk-Klinik allows me to be guided by these values I learned early on. Treating each patient as an individual and personal consultations are very important to me. When speaking with my patients I always try to put myself in their shoes. What do they need? What are their concerns? How can I convey medical facts so they will understand them? Gelenk-Klinik don't practice the anonymity so common in other clinics.

As head of the Foot and Ankle Surgery Centre (ZFSmax), my approach is to preserve the bone as best possible. The goals of every treatment should be to maintain mobility and alleviate pain. The focus is on conservative and minimally invasive treatments.
