Sports orthopaedics/ sports traumatology

We define sports traumatology or sports orthopaedics as the holistic care of sports injuries. In addition to the treatment of acute injuries, we focus on occupational and sports rehabilitation as well as injury prevention. It does not matter whether the patient is a professional or an amateur athlete.

The specialised department is led by head physician PD Dr. med. Kai Fehske. He has long-standing expertise in the medical treatment of high-performance athletes in both team and individual sports. For instance, he cares for the Würzburg national basketball Bundesliga team. Dr. Fehske is very well networked in sports medicine, both scientifically and professionally (in specialist organisations).
