About the department
According to the prestigious medical magazine Focus, the Department of Orthopedics, Foot Surgery, Hand Surgery and Spinal Surgery at the ATOS Clinic Munich is one of the best medical facilities in Germany, specializing in shoulder and knee surgery, foot surgery, and hand surgery!
The department offers a full range of medical services for diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The key focus of the department's doctors is the treatment of diseases of the large joints: knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, and wrist. Foot surgery specialists are responsible for the correction of hallux valgus, hallux rigidus, clubfoot, flatfoot, and claw toes, as well as the treatment of ankle arthrosis, heel spurs, and Achilles tendon ruptures. The department regularly admits patients with hand diseases, with particular interest in the treatment of wrist arthrosis, rhizarthrosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and Dupuytren's contracture. The therapeutic offer is complemented by conservative and surgical treatment of spinal diseases such as herniated discs, spinal canal stenosis, vertebral fractures, and others. The department's medical team offers patients effective conservative treatment methods. However, when surgery is required, arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques are preferred to ensure the fastest possible postoperative recovery and a high level of safety.
The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Mark Tauber. Of particular clinical interest to the specialist is shoulder surgery: primary and revision shoulder arthroplasty and arthroscopic procedures on the shoulder joint. Prof. Tauber is recognized as one of Germany's top experts in shoulder surgery according to the Focus magazine.
The department has unique expertise in the treatment of shoulder pathologies. The physicians in this area focus on patients with shoulder impingement, shoulder arthrosis, rotator cuff tears, shoulder dislocations, frozen shoulder, and lateral epicondylitis. The team of specialists consists of three highly qualified doctors, each of whom is ranked among the best experts in their field of expertise in Germany (Focus and Stern certificates). The most common shoulder pathology is impingement syndrome. In this condition, the head of the humerus hits the acromial process of the shoulder blade improperly, causing severe pain (especially when raising the arm) and stiffness of the shoulder, up to complete loss of mobility. Diagnosis includes clinical examination with assessment of shoulder range of motion, X-rays, sonography, and magnetic resonance imaging. As for the treatment, it is mostly conservative: doctors prescribe painkillers and local injections of analgesics, physiotherapy, cryotherapy, electrotherapy, and other procedures. The course of conservative treatment lasts 3-4 months. In the advanced stages of shoulder impingement, conservative treatment is ineffective, so the doctors of the department prefer to perform surgery. The operation is performed using minimally traumatic arthroscopic techniques and takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the severity of the clinical case.
The medical facility also provides top-class medical services to patients with knee diseases. The department diagnoses and treats knee arthrosis (gonarthrosis), cruciate ligament ruptures, meniscus tears, patellar dislocations, and knee cartilage lesions. The main diagnostic methods for the above conditions are imaging tests such as X-ray scanning, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. In complex cases, an arthroscopic examination may be required, which allows for a direct visual assessment of the condition of the cartilage tissue and other structures of the knee joint. Therapeutic options in this area include both conservative and surgical treatments. The basis of conservative therapy is the use of analgesics, intra-articular injections, physiotherapy, and other effective methods. In complex cases, surgery may be necessary. Knee surgery is performed in the department using arthroscopic techniques. The pathological focus is approached through 2 punctures up to 5 mm in size, through which a miniature video camera and instruments for surgical manipulations are inserted into the joint.
The department also offers an innovative procedure for transplanting cartilage cells (autologous chondrocyte implantation), which is indicated for patients with minor cartilage lesions. The treatment consists of the following three stages: the patient's chondrocytes are harvested arthroscopically, processed and cultured in the laboratory, and the biological material obtained is injected into the affected areas of the knee joint cartilage during a repeat arthroscopic procedure. After autologous chondrocyte implantation, knee pain disappears and the progression of arthrosis slows down, making it possible to postpone or avoid joint replacement surgery.
An integral part of the department's daily clinical practice is the treatment of foot disorders. The medical team specializes in the treatment of hallux valgus, hallux rigidus, clubfoot, flatfoot, claw toes, ankle arthrosis, heel spurs, Achilles tendon ruptures, and other pathologies. The department's physicians offer a variety of effective surgical procedures for the treatment of hallux valgus and hallux rigidus, including cheilectomy, osteotomy, and arthrodesis. These surgical procedures are performed using sparing minimally invasive surgical techniques. The department also often admits patients with heel spurs. The majority of cases are managed conservatively with physiotherapy and injections of autologous conditioned plasma, hyaluronic acid, Botox, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

About hospital
According to the medical magazine Focus, the ATOS Clinic Munich is one of the best medical facilities in Germany for shoulder and knee surgery, foot surgery, and hand surgery!
The clinic was opened in 2008, and in a relatively short period of time, has taken a leading position among the best medical complexes in Germany. The clinic diagnoses and treats the entire spectrum of diseases of the musculoskeletal system: pathologies of the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, and wrist joints, foot diseases, hand diseases, and spinal conditions. The clinic also offers the services of the Department of Plastic Surgery, whose specialists masterfully perform reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery on the face and body. The clinic offers a personalized approach to treatment, combining integrative therapy with advanced medical technologies. The goal of the specialists is to provide each patient with high-quality medical care that takes into account their needs and features.
The ATOS Clinic Munich has a team of highly competent doctors with extensive clinical experience in orthopedics and plastic surgery. Many specialists are ranked among the best doctors in Germany by renowned medical journals, including Focus magazine. The doctors devote sufficient time to individual consultations, during which they study the diagnostic results and determine the optimal treatment tactics for the patient. Surgery for orthopedic diseases is a last-line treatment and is prescribed only when conservative therapy fails. Prior to each plastic surgery procedure, the surgeons use innovative computer programs to simulate the patient's postoperative images, which allows for a preliminary assessment of the plastic surgery result and maximum patient satisfaction.
The clinic has the latest generation of diagnostic equipment for instrumental examinations: X-ray, sonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Treatment involves highly effective conservative methods, including intra-articular injections of hyaluronic acid and autologous plasma, physiotherapy, cryotherapy, heat therapy, electrotherapy, ultrasound therapy, etc. Surgery is performed using minimally invasive surgical techniques. Joint surgeries are most often performed endoscopically, and spinal surgeries are performed using microsurgical and minimally invasive techniques.
The specialists at the ATOS Clinic Munich are convinced that the success of treatment is influenced by the atmosphere in the medical facility, so here patients can relax as much as possible and focus on their health. The clinic has 40 beds: there are 23 standard single patient rooms, 13 single enhanced-comfort patient rooms, 2 luxury suites, and one double room, while the patient rooms are more reminiscent of a first-class hotel.
Based on the clinic's treatment success reports and patient reviews, the level of satisfaction with medical services here reaches 96%, which is a very high indicator that speaks for itself.
