Life is movement – that is the motto of the Heidelberg Orthopedic Hospital. This goal is pursued through conservative orthopedics, a high level of precision in larger or smaller operations and through technical orthopedics. The Heidelberg University Orthopedic Hospital is the largest facility of its kind in Germany. Each year, we conduct over 6,000 inpatient and more than 50,000 outpatient treatments, covering the entire spectrum of diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system.

Individual Solutions Rather Than Off-The-Shelf Treatments

Specialist teams of highly competent and experienced doctors, nursing staff, physical therapists and occupational therapists work day by day to design and implement the optimal treatment for each individual patient. Medical treatment is optimally complemented by the Technical Orthopedics Department, our in-house orthopedic workshop for manufacturing prostheses (arm/hand and leg/foot), orthotics and bandages. Also complex orthopedic problems find appropriate solutions here.
