In principle, all visits to our private practice for orthopaedics & traumatology in Frankfurt are based on a detailed discussion about the cause, course, treatment options, etc. as well as a thorough physical examination. Only when the patient understands their clinical picture correctly can they support the treatment path with conviction.

A “clean” diagnosis is important for successful therapy. In order to maintain this, a detailed medical examination, a thorough physical examination and purposeful diagnostics are required. From this, a concept for treatment is defined together.
A modern, high-resolution ultrasound device and a digital X-ray machine are available in practice for imaging procedures.
All wounds, which do not require hospital treatment on account of the extent and need for narcosis, can be supplied lege artis (sutures, bandages, etc.). These include e.g. bruises, cuts, tears or lacerations, etc. The exception to this rule are accidents at work. Thy must be handled by an “accident insurance physician” (German: “Durchgangsarzt”).
Modern treatment methods are used and ensure a regular healing process for fractures, inflammation-induced immobilisation, post-operative aftercare or injuries.
After injuries or surgeries, physiotherapeutic treatments are often essential to improve, restore, or even enhance the function and mobility of the affected musculoskeletal system. These treatments help reduce pain, promote healing, and prevent further complications, enabling patients to regain their strength and quality of life. Each patient receives an individually tailored rehabilitation program, carefully designed to meet their specific needs and abilities. This personalized approach ensures that the therapy is continuously adjusted as the patient progresses, optimizing recovery and enabling them to return to their daily activities or athletic pursuits more quickly and safely.
For many injuries, orthopedic devices are necessary to allow the damaged structures to heal or to allow sufficient stability and relief. Depending on the situation and necessity, medical devices can be prescribed. Their use and duration of use are determined together.

Tendon injuries: Which ones are there?
Tendons are there to transfer the force of a muscle to a bone. They have only a few cells that divide slowly. In the process, they renew the tissue. Because of the metabolism, tendon injuries take longer to heal.
