Appointment with ?

I would be happy to advise you!

Who am I?
My name is dr. Nicolas Gumpert. I am a specialist in orthopedics and the founder of .
Various television programs and print media report regularly about my work. On HR television you can see me every 6 weeks live on "Hallo Hessen".
But now enough is indicated ;-)

In order to be able to treat successfully in orthopedics, a thorough examination, diagnosis and a medical history are required.
In our very economic world in particular, there is too little time to thoroughly grasp the complex diseases of orthopedics and thus initiate targeted treatment.
I don't want to join the ranks of "quick knife pullers".
The aim of any treatment is treatment without surgery.

Which therapy achieves the best results in the long term can only be determined after looking at all of the information (Examination, X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, etc.) be assessed.

You will find me:

  • Lumedis - orthopedic surgeons
    Kaiserstrasse 14
    60311 Frankfurt am Main

You can make an appointment here.
Unfortunately, it is currently only possible to make an appointment with private health insurers. I hope for your understanding!
For more information about myself, see Lumedis - Orthopedists.

His treatment focus is sports orthopedics.
In addition to the additional qualification of the

  • sports medicine
    does he have an additional qualification in
  • acupuncture
    and
  • manual medicine / chiropractic.

His hobby horse

tries to prepare the complex interrelationships in medicine in a medical journalistically understandable for laymen, so that everyone can understand medical diseases without being simplified.

Why was founded?

Dr. As a "young assistant", Nicolas Gumpert quickly realized that the time for adequate clarification, e.g. before an orthopedic operation was far too short to adequately answer all questions and risks, since a working day should not have more than 12 working hours.
In autumn 2002 he took the trouble to simply "write down" the five most important e-diseases that are operated on in an orthopedic clinic and collect all the important information for the medical layperson.
The first five illnesses that went online at the time:

  • disc prolapse
  • Meniscal tear
  • hallux valgus
  • Impingement Syndrome
  • Hip osteoarthritis

was born ;-)
Due to the relatively quick success with the readership, Dr. Nicolas Gumpert publishes more and more topics and works with his then medical assistant colleague Dr. Marc Jungermann founded the health publisher "OPIS" - online patient information service (who came up with this long name ;-))
About OPIS, Dr. Jungermann and published over 25 titles on various orthopedic diseases.
You can find an overview and a free download of all books at Lumedis - Books and Scientific Publications by Dr. Nicolas Gumpert.
