Professor Thomas Niemeyer
Dear Patients,
Dear Colleagues,
Our Centre has neurosurgeons, trauma and spinal surgeons, orthopaediatricians, pain therapists, physiotherapists and orthopaedic technicians all working together in
an interdisciplinary team, providing patients of all ages
with the best possible diagnostic and treatment services for diseases and changes in the spinal column. Our
patients and the referring or transferring doctor have a
guarantee of the best possible treatment from the doctor
best qualified to treat the disease.
Degenerative diseases, injuries, deformities, inflammations and tumorous processes in the spinal column are
becoming increasingly significant in daily clinical practice as the result of demographic changes in the population. It is vital for the general practitioner and hospital
specialist to work hand-in-hand to ensure the best possible treatment for patients. This gives the patient and the
referring doctor the opportunity to gain expert advice
and treatment on a daily basis. The Central Accident &
Emergency Department is home to an experienced team
of doctors and nurses, providing an around-the-clock
service for all issues and problems.
