Leader of hand and plastic surgery department at Ingolstadt Hospital changes roles
In a significant development, Dr. Josef Ulrich Rother and Dr. Vincent März have joined the Hand and Plastic Surgery Department at the Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery at Ingolstadt Clinic. These renowned specialists bring their expertise to the table, focusing on hand surgery as well as plastic and reconstructive surgery.
Dr. Vincent März, a specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery with an additional qualification in hand surgery, will oversee the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery area. His extensive experience includes microsurgical coverage of acute or chronic skin-soft tissue defects, scar corrections after burns, and reconstructive surgery of the female breast, among others. Dr. März recently took up his new role in July.
Meanwhile, Dr. Josef Ulrich Rother, a specialist in trauma surgery and orthopedics with additional qualifications in special trauma surgery, emergency medicine, and hand surgery, will lead the Hand Surgery area. His appointment as the new director of hand surgery at the Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery was welcomed by Prof. Dr. Hans-Georg Palm, the director of the Centre.
The Hand Surgery area at the Ingolstadt Clinic encompasses diagnostics and therapy for injuries and diseases in the hand area. This includes treatment of acute tendon, nerve, or vessel injuries, bone fractures, degenerative diseases, nerve compression syndromes, tumors, and accidents to restore the hand. Modern operating techniques, finest instruments, and imaging procedures are employed in hand surgery at the clinic.
The Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery area, on the other hand, includes both reconstructive surgery, such as after severe injuries, and breast surgery and body-shaping procedures. The clinic boasts the most modern microsurgical techniques and a competent, interdisciplinary team for plastic and aesthetic surgery.
Dr. Andreas Tiete, Medical Director, Nursing and Information Technology, and Medical Director. Press Office/Klinikum Ingolstadt, emphasized the importance of comprehensive medical care, particularly for patients with limitations at the extremities, particularly in hands and arms.
The goal of plastic surgery is to restore or improve form and function, and as far as possible, to meet the individual aesthetic expectations of patients. Similarly, the goal of hand surgery is to restore function, mobility, and sensitivity of the hand as best as possible. The expertise of Dr. Rother and Dr. März at the Ingolstadt Clinic promises to deliver on this goal, offering hope to many patients seeking restoration and improvement.
Before joining the Ingolstadt Clinic, Dr. Vincent März worked as a senior physician at the Medical School of Hannover. The appointments of Dr. Rother and Dr. März have been met with enthusiasm, with Prof. Dr. Hans-Georg Palm expressing his pleasure at their arrival.
Science and medical-conditions related to hand surgery will see advancements in treatments and therapies under the leadership of Dr. Josef Ulrich Rother at the Hand Surgery area of the Ingolstadt Clinic. Dr. Vincent März, meanwhile, will bring his expertise in plastic and reconstructive surgeries to the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery area, aiming to provide health-and-wellness benefits to patients through various therapies-and-treatments.
