Our medical attention focuses on the individual complaints of the patient along with any concerns and needs associated with the problems. Knowledge of the latest internationally acknowledged Treatment methods, state-of-the art Equipment, and excellent team spirit allow us to meet the Needs of the patients who place themselves in our hands.

The trust of local patients in the competence of our trauma surgery physicians on the one hand, and the wide spectrum of leisure and sporting activities available in this region on the other have made the Department of Trauma Surgery the largest department of the Klinik Diakonissen Schladming. Yearly, more than 10,000 people are treated as outpatients and approximately 200 operations are performed.

The Department of Trauma Surgery has established itself as a competence centre for joint diseases and injuries and offers (arthroscopic) surgical methods of the highest technical standard. The department specialises in the treatment of sports injuries of all kinds. Some of the surgical procedures are performed as one-day operations. The physical medicine established in the hospital in cooperation with rehabilitation facilities work together to provide the earliest recovery possible.
