In 2009 my private practice for Aesthetic and Reconstructive Foot Surgery was opened in Düsseldorf - the first of its kind in Germany. I offer a very high degree of specialization, because more than 95% of my operations take place on the foot - to... be more precise, on the forefoot or toes. My main areas of treatment
Here is a short overview of my spectrum from reconstructive (=orthopedic) to aesthetic foot surgery.
Many operations can be performed on an outpatient basis under regional anesthesia of the foot (with twilight sleep if desired), but of course general anesthesia and inpatient care are also possible.
I attach great importance to the absence of pain immediately after your surgery and bring my many years of anesthesiological experience to bear here.
Reconstructive foot surgery (hallux valgus, hallux rigidus, hammertoes, etc.)
The field of reconstructive foot surgery includes all deformities and diseases that cause discomfort, such as:
Hallux valgus (bunion), hallux rigidus, hallux limitus, hallux valgus interphalangeus
Hammer toes, claw toes, curley / curling toe, dig. quintus varus etc.
Tailor's bunion
Metatarsalgia
"Cowboy boot syndrome", "Cinderella shoe syndrome".
Brachydactyly, brachymetatarsia, macrodactyly, polydactyly
Nerve compression syndromes (e.g. Morton's neuralgia, tarsal tunnel syndrome)
Rheumatoid surgery (chronic polyarthritis, c.p.)
Plantar warts
Nail surgery (unguis incarnatus, rolled nails. etc.)
Treatment of fractures
Morbus Ledderhose
heel spurs, plantar fasciitis
chronic wounds
All operations are performed individually according to internationally proven and recognized surgical methods.
Optionally, self-dissolving screws and implants can be used instead of conventional materials for many operations.
I always try to optimize the result also from an aesthetic point of view with inconspicuous incisions and cosmetic suturing techniques.
After most operations, immediate full weight-bearing without crutches is allowed.
If desired, bilateral operations can also be performed without problems in most cases.
Correction of pre-operated feet, second opinion service
Another focus of my practice is the correction of pre-operated feet - both in cases of reoccurring deformities as well as arthrosis, after accidents or for aesthetic reasons.
2nd opinion
Of course I am also available "just" for a second (or third) opinion.
Take the opportunity of a non-binding examination and consultation.
Aesthetic foot surgery (toe shortening, toe lengthening, syndactyly...
The field of aesthetic foot surgery includes all purely beautifying operations, for example
Toe shortening - Toe shortening
Toe lengthening ("one stage" or internal / external distractor)
in case of brachymetatarsia/ brachydactyly/ brachyphalangy and after previous operations
"Cinderella operation" / "Cinderella operation
Toe separation in syndactyly (so-called webbed toes)
Toe straightening (Curley / Curling Toe, Digitus quintus varus superductus, crooked toes)
Foot narrowing (bony and/or soft tissue)
Transgender operations on the foot
Toe widening / volume building
Toe reduction for macrodactyly
Toe narrowing
scar correction, removal of skin lesions
Aesthetic nail surgery
Here, too, self-dissolving screws and implants can be optionally used instead of conventional materials for many procedures.
