Orthopedic Clinic Freiburg
The Orthopedic Clinic Freiburg enjoys the status of a highly specialized medical facility where patients with musculoskeletal diseases are successfully diagnosed and treated. The primary specialization of the medical facility is the provision of comprehensive medical care to patients with joint diseases, such as knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, ankle, and wrist pathologies. The clinic is one of the leading medical centers in Germany and successfully performs autologous cartilage transplantation to treat knee, hip, shoulder, and ankle arthrosis. This treatment method is innovative and is available in only a few clinics in the country. The specialists at the clinic annually perform more than 700 procedures of autologous cartilage transplantation, which is one of the highest rates in the European medical arena. Almost all joint surgeries are performed using minimally invasive techniques. In addition, high-tech navigation systems are widely used at the clinic, which contributes to the high safety of surgical interventions. The clinic's therapeutic options are complemented by surgical treatment of spinal diseases.
In May 2020, a new clinic building with an advanced operating unit covering an area of 2,600 square meters began its work. The unit houses two modern operating rooms with all the necessary equipment. Hygiene and safety standards are strictly met in operating rooms. Imaging diagnostics can be performed directly during the operation whenever required, including X-ray scans, magnetic resonance imaging, digital volume tomography, ultrasound scans, and other examinations. More than 2,500 surgical interventions of varying degrees of complexity are performed at the clinic annually.
The clinic's patients are in the safe hands of highly qualified doctors with long experience in joint surgery. Each patient and their clinical case are unique to the clinic's specialists, so a treatment regimen is developed taking into account the specific clinical indications, needs, and wishes of the patient. The task of the doctors at the clinic is not only to provide patients with high-quality medical care but also to ensure psychological support for patients at all stages of the therapeutic process.
The Orthopedic Clinic Freiburg has been awarded prestigious quality certificates, including the certificate for autologous cartilage transplantation, the endoCert certificate for joint replacement surgery, the D.A.F certificate for foot and ankle surgery, and the DIN ISO 9001:2015 certificate. The number of patients wishing to undergo their treatment at this clinic is steadily growing, which is the main indicator of the success and effectiveness of the medical care provided.

Location
Freiburg is a calm and beautiful city that is often called "the pearl of the Black Forest". Freiburg offers beautiful architectural structures of various styles, ancient churches, one of the largest universities in Germany, and many impressive sights. Freiburg is surrounded by green mountain ranges, which gives it a special charm.
Freiburg is an ancient city, the official founding date of which is 1120. The very heart of the city is the historical center, with its exquisite buildings, narrow, cobbled medieval streets, souvenir shops, cozy cafes, and restaurants. The Old and New City Halls are located on the central square of Freiburg. Freiburg Muenster, the Cathedral of Our Lady, is also located here. The temple is considered one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world. The construction of Muenster dates back to 1200-1510. During World War II, it miraculously survived the bombing. The temple took three centuries to build, so several architectural styles are mixed here, but the Gothic style dominates. Muenster impresses with its height, grandeur, and majesty. Both the exterior and interior decorations are unsurpassed. The facade of the shrine is decorated with a variety of sculptures, and inside, one can see a beautiful main altar, columns with statues of the 12 apostles, beautiful stained glass windows, and much more.
The Mundenhof Park is a must-see place in Freiburg. The park occupies an area of 38 hectares. Here one can not only enjoy walks along well-groomed alleys with various vegetation and sculptures but also see many animals, including rare ones. It is allowed to interact with some animals: stroke, feed, and take pictures of them.
After sightseeing, city guests are happy to go to the MarktHalle (a covered market), which has been converted into a huge food court. Here one can taste delicious dishes of national German cuisine as well as specialties of Italian, French, Thai, Oriental, Mexican, Brazilian, and Indian cuisines. The MarktHalle also offers bars and fruit shops.
