Our philosophy
High level of expertise through specialization
The most important focus of our medical activities is a high level of expertise through specialization. This is the only way to keep pace with developments in modern medicine at an international level and to offer you – our patients – optimal medical care.
You are at the center of our attention
You as a patient are at the center of everything we do. It is very important to us to find a treatment that is tailored to your needs. We would like to develop therapy decisions together with you and involve you in the treatment in a well-informed manner.
Technical support for traceable quality
We stand for a high level of mechanization of our surgical procedures in order to guarantee the highest quality in a reproducible manner. We have been one of Europe’s leaders in robot-assisted orthopaedic surgery for years and are actively shaping the future in this field.
Scientifically sound therapy
For us, a close professional exchange and a permanent, self-critical and transparent evaluation of our therapies is paramount. We try to optimize all components of a treatment according to the latest scientific findings.
The 4-eyes principle
All difficult medical decisions are regularly discussed by our medical team and the individual therapy is determined together. Every decision for an operation must withstand the critical eye of others and be well-founded. As a rule, we operate together, as this enables us to ensure high quality and an optimal surgical procedure.
