Clinic Frankfurt Main for Orthopedics and Trauma

Our partner clinic in Frankfurt Main provides the entire range of modern conservative and operative treatments for diseases and injuries of the postural and musculoskeletal system.
The clinic is one of the most reputable orthopedic centers in Germany.

Joint preserving and joint replacing surgery is focus of the orthopedic surgery. Primary or revision surgery for arthroplasty of hip, knee, ankle, shoulder or hand joints are carried out according to the individual needs of patients. Up to date arthroplasty based on the latest scientific findings are just as important to us as tissue-preserving (minimally invasive) surgical techniques in order to provide fast and smooth-running rehabilitation to our international patients. The department of arthroplasty has been certified as a centre of excellence by the German orthopedic board. For continuous quality assurance, the clinic is a member of the German registry for endoprosthetics (EPRD).

Tumor orthopedics, elective shoulder surgery, elective hand and foot surgery and orthopedic rheumatology are further specialties of our clinic.  Furthermore our clinic is specialised on secondary reconstructive surgery after trauma and for deformities. Pediatric orthopedics is provided by the department for pediatric and neuro-orthopedics at the clinic. Spinal disorders are treated by our department of spinal surgery.
 

Trauma and sports injuries enclose the entire clinical range of modern treatments for any injuries of the musculoskeletal system.
 

The specific areas of expertise at the trauma department are pelvic and spinal surgery, trauma arthroplasty, trauma hand and shoulder surgery as well as sports trauma medicine including consultation hours and supervision of athletes.
 

The central interdisciplinary emergency room (ZNA) with a shock room and polytrauma management (specialized treatment of multiple injuries in the “maximum care clinic”), including CT, MRI and angiography, comprises the entire clinical range of medical care provided by a modern trauma centre with interdisciplinary treatments, a helicopter pad and an emergency response vehicle as well as implementation of an “injury-type procedure” according to the German employers’ liability insurance associations (VAV; § 6).
 

The Clinic for Orthopaedics and Trauma is managed on a collegial basis by a head physician for orthopedics and a head physician for trauma and sports injuries.

Orthopedic rehabilitation

For some time now, orthopedic disorders have been among the most common medical conditions – and not just in industrialized countries. A life without sufficient exercise and often with the wrong nutrition takes its toll, and on top of this come the effects of age-related wear and tear on your body.

This often results in the following:

• Spinal pain
• Disc disorders
• Shoulder disorders/injuries
• Ligament injuries
• Operations on the skeletal system

Often the only solution is replacement surgery using an endoprosthesis. In Germany alone, 400,000 people have endoprosthetic surgery every year, the vast majority being hip or knee replacements.

These kinds of operations to implant artificial joints have long been some of the most commonly performed operations in Germany and are routine procedures.

Our partner rehabilitation clinic in Frankfurt offers customized orthopedic rehabilitation programs for you. The therapy and training plan is always drawn up in close collaboration with you as our patient so that you can get back to your normal life as quickly as possible.

Our program will comprise physiotherapy as well as elements of ergotherapy, psychotherapy and advice on nutrition.
