Specialist/Senior Physician (f/m/d) Trauma Surgery | Orthopedics and Traumatology | Orthopedics and Orthopedic Surgery

About the hospital

Our hospital (over 300 systemized beds) is one of the largest district hospitals in the region with a specialist character. From January 1, 2025, the orthopedics specialty and the trauma surgery department will be merged to form the orthopedics and traumatology department. For this reason and because of simultaneous retirements, 2 specialist positions for orthopedics and traumatology are being advertised. The orthopedics and traumatology department has 37 systemized beds.

In addition to the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, there are the following specialist areas: primary departments for general and visceral surgery, anesthesiology and intensive care medicine, gynecology and obstetrics, ENT, internal medicine with physiotherapy and rehabilitation, neurology, pediatrics, psychiatry and psychotherapeutic medicine and urology as well as the institutes for radiology and nuclear medicine.

The department is responsible for providing outpatient and inpatient care in the East Tyrol and Upper Carinthia region. The region is characterized by intensive winter and summer tourism. Our main area of ​​responsibility is traumatological care for the local population as well as holiday guests, with a focus on minimally invasive surgical techniques. The trauma surgery department is a local, certified trauma center and is part of the Carinthia/East Tyrol trauma network. In addition, the treatment of orthopedic conditions with endoprosthetic care for the hip, knee, shoulder, hand and finger joints is also offered, as well as foot surgery and hand surgery with all reconstructive procedures.

It is possible to obtain the specialist title in orthopaedics and traumatology and the diploma specializing in hand surgery in the hospital.

Our team will consist of a primary care physician, 11 senior physicians and 4 assistant physicians.
