Dr. Gerhard Hobusch is a orthopaedic physician and lecturer at the University Clinic for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery at the Vienna General Hospital. His main areas of treatment include musculoskeletal oncology, tumor orthopedics deals with the diagnosis and surgical treatment of tumors of the musculoskeletal system.
As head of the amputation and rehabilitation outpatient clinic, Dr. Gerhard Hobusch is familiar with surgical amputation techniques, as well as the aftercare of amputees and their technical care. An important topic here is the treatment of residual limb and phantom pain.
Dr. Gerhard Hobusch has many years of experience in symptom-based orthopedic ultrasound-guided infiltration therapy. Knowledge of the level of evidence of therapeutic infiltrations improves their use in dealing competently with your specific complaints. Through ultrasound-guided therapeutic infiltrations, active ingredients can be precisely brought to the anatomical site of the pain in small quantities. These therapies benefit you in cases of complaints in the shoulder, Achilles tendon, but also in the area of the hip and knee.
Dr. Gerhard Hobusch also focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of common conditions such as osteoarthritis (knee, hip, and spinal joints). The increasing variety of therapies unsettles patients. Here, a conversation and a clinical examination, for which time is taken, can provide a clear assessment of the situation and give the patient a clear picture of their condition (=enlightenment). Based on clinical symptoms (pain, movement restrictions, etc.) and radiological examinations such as X-rays (evidence of wear and tear, progression of wear and tear, etc.), assessments can help determine whether the problem should be solved conservatively or surgically.
Learned techniques from the field of acupuncture (TCM) and manual medicine of the musculoskeletal system are tools that Dr. Gerhard Hobusch uses to improve their quality of life in addition to previous diagnostics.
