Orthopaedic surgeon specialising in sports and knee injuries with extensive experience in meniscus surgery, ACL repair and revision surgery, arthroscopic cartilage repair (such as microfracture), ligament reconstruction, and fracture repair.
I am a licensed orthopaedic trauma surgeon focused on knee injuries. I am an expert in reconstructive knee surgery, including knee ligaments and arthroscopic surgery of the meniscus and cartilage. Annually, I perform 300 reconstructions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and more than 300 arthroscopic knee procedures. I am also active in the field of meniscus and cartilage regeneration with minimally invasive methods.
I am very active in treating athletes with knee injuries and receive worldwide referrals of those patients. I am the team physician for the Austrian Skiing Team (ÖSV), two ice hockey teams (SV Arminen, Post SV), the Austrian Soccer Board, and the American football team Danube Dragons. In the past, I was the team physician for the Austrian Tennis Federation and the Austrian Badminton Federation.
I have written about 40 peer-reviewed publications and have been an invited speaker at many international lectures and courses.
