Treatment goal
Following a detailed examination and appropriate diagnostic procedures, our main priority is to initiate the treatment most suited to the patient’s needs.
In most cases, the injury can be completely healed by following a differentiated, primarily conservative treatment regimen. Optimised, performance-oriented rehabilitation is provided in close cooperation with the highly specialised sports physiotherapists in our group of sports medicine experts.
Cutting-edge, evidence-based operations can also be performed at our hospital if surgery is required. Most joint surgery in the field of sports medicine can now be performed using minimally invasive procedures (arthroscopy). The aim of both surgical procedures and sports physiotherapy is to enable the patient to resume their sporting activities and return to peak performance as soon as possible.
