Orthopaedic Specialist and Surgeon · FindelMedic · Senningerberg
Specialist in the diagnosis and conservative treatment of musculoskeletal conditions — and in providing independent expert second opinions on surgical indications.
PATIENTS
Patients seeking expert diagnosis You have pain in your shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, or back.
You want to understand what is actually happening — not just receive a prescription — and explore all options before committing to a course of treatment.
Patients questioning a surgical recommendation You have been advised to have surgery.
Before proceeding, you want a rigorous, independent validation of the indication — from an experienced surgeon.
Patients with complex post-operative situations Your hip or knee replacement has not produced the expected result. You are experiencing persistent pain, stiffness, or functional limitations after surgery. You need an experienced eye to understand what is happening and what comes next.
Athletes and active adults A sports injury or an overuse condition is affecting your training, your performance, or your daily life. You want expert guidance — combining sports medicine expertise with orthopaedic depth — on the most appropriate path back to full activity.
GPs and referring physicians You have a patient with a complex musculoskeletal situation that requires specialist input. Whether for diagnostic clarification, treatment guidance, or surgical indication validation, I welcome referrals and provide detailed written reports.
