Dr.med.Petkin Portrait

I'm looking forward hearing from you!

Book appointement

Dr. Kalojan Petkin
Specialist in orthopedics
and traumatology

Grown up in Vienna – after finishing my medical studies – as a next career step I moved to Switzerland where I successfully completed my orthopedic and traumatolgy specialist training. 2014 I won the AGA Mitek shoulder fellowship with Dr. Laurent Lafosse (lasting one year).

I try to look at the complete muscolosketal system in its entirety. Healing is often possible without any surgery! Due to constant trainings and permanent education i am always on the cutting edge of technology!

If you are looking for a personal and respectful treatment – then my address is exactly the right one!
In case of surgery I am reachable 24h/day for my patients (personal or by phone).

I intensified specialist knowledge in shoulder arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) with Dr. Laurent Lafosse- one of the global pioneers of minimally invasive shoulder surgery.

Subsequently I worked in the sports medicine center of Prof. Bernhard Jost (Swiss Olympic St. Gallen). My orthopedic training was completed in the endoprothetics center with Dr. Ludwig Seebauer in Munich (Germany).

You are right with me:

  • Manual therapy treatments (fascial distortion techniques)
  • Targeted image intensifier-controlled infiltration
  • Modern regenerative medicine for arthrosis and tendon diseases – ACP, APC, ACS, PRPw, PRPr 
  • Autologous blood therapies
  • Cartilage cure
  • Laser therapy
  • Weberneedle Endolaser
  • Magnetic resonance therapy (MBST)
  • Orthomolecular medicine
  • High dose ozone therapy
  • Extracellular heavy metal elimination
  • Innovative surgical treatment of all joints with a focus on shoulders, knees and hips.
  • Use of bio-regenerative screws, eliminating the need for a second operation to remove the screws.
  • Personal and individual follow-up care after accidents and/or surgical interventions.
  • Second opinion with a check of indications for upcoming interventions and chronic, persistent complaints of the musculoskeletal system.
  • Outpatient needle arthroscopy (often saves an arthroscopy under general anesthesia)

Health
is our greatest asset.

Knee

Meniscus
The meniscus has an important shock absorbing function in the knee and makes the joint partners fit together. Injuries to the meniscus lead to complaints occurring on the inside or outside of the knee. The mobility of the knee joint can be limited.

Ligament tear (outer and inner ligament, cruciate ligament)
The inner and outer band stabilize the knee laterally. An injury causes pain, with swelling in the knee. Due to the loss of stability, a buckling (giving way) when walking can be perceived.

Rupture of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments
The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments stabilize backwards and forwards. An injury causes pain with swelling in the knee. Due to the loss of stability, a buckling (giving way) when walking can be perceived.

Knee arthrosis (gonarthrosis)
Due to an inflammatory condition, the cartilage covering is lost. Damage to the articular cartilage can result in pain, swelling, restricted movement and overheating of the knee, etc

Bone edema or bone marrow edema or bone bruise
Accumulation of water in the bone which, in extreme cases, can lead to the death of the bone. The increased pressure in the bone causes microfractures, which are painful.

Hips

Osteoarthritis of the hip (coxarthrosis)
Damage to the articular cartilage, which can manifest itself as pain in the hip, groin or knee and can lead to restricted movement.

Trochanteric bursitis (bursitis)
Inflammation of the bursa at the greater trochanter which can manifest itself as pain in the hip.

Bone edema or bone marrow edema or bone bruise
Accumulation of water in the bone which, in extreme cases, can lead to the death of the bone. The increased pressure in the bone causes microfractures, which are painful.

Spine

Herniated discs with nerve irritation Wear and tear of the intervertebral joints (facet joint arthrosis)
Low back pain
Sciatica
Bone edema or bone marrow edema or bone bruise
Accumulation of water in the bone which, in extreme cases, can lead to the death of the bone. The increased pressure in the bone causes microfractures, which are painful.

Shoulder

Frozen shoulder
Severely painful restriction of movement of the shoulder without a cause, due to injury or after an operation.

Impingement syndrome
Tightness under the acromion. The tendons under the acromion can rub and become worn. In most cases, no surgical intervention is required.

Osteoarthritis of the shoulder joint
Wear and tear of the joint between the acromion and the collarbone.

Splitting of the acromioclavicular joint (acromioclavicular joint splitting)
The ligaments that stabilize the acromioclavicular joint tear. This appears to cause the collarbone to rise higher on the shoulder side. Depending on the severity, surgical therapy using the keyhole technique is necessary, which is ideally carried out shortly after the injury.

Calcified shoulder
Calcium builds up in the tendons of the shoulder cap, which can result in severe shoulder pain.

Rotator cuff tear
Tearing or tearing of the tendons of the shoulder cap.

Shoulder instability
This can be caused by an accident or without an accident. In the case of an accident-related dislocation of the shoulder, the focus is on surgical therapy at a young age.

Elbow

Tennis elbow
Inflammation of the tendon attachments at the elbow that stretch the wrist or fingers.

Golfer’s elbow
Inflammation of the tendon attachments on the inside of the elbow.

 

 

 

Manual therapy treatments (fascial distortion techniques)

The mobility of the spine and joints is restored through targeted movements. It is a painless therapy exclusively with the hands. There may be an audible cracking sound during treatment. Joint blockages and muscle tension are permanently released.

Modern regenerative medicine for arthrosis and tendon diseases

ACP, APC, ACS, PRP, PRPr, PRPw autohemotherapy
The regeneration of the tissue is stimulated by the body’s own growth substances and messenger substances in the blood.

Cartilage cure
Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect, which starts in the weeks after the infiltration. However, not every patient responds to treatment.

Laser therapy
The high-energy laser therapy has an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect.

Endolaser
Greater penetration depth with better anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect.

Magnetic resonance therapy (MBST®)

The cells are stimulated by pulsating electromagnetic fields (nuclear spin resonance signal MBST®).

In the case of cartilage stimulation, regeneration of cartilage cells can occur.

By stimulating the bone tissue, in turn, for the regeneration of bone edema and by activating the bone metabolism for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Bone metabolism disorders such as aseptic bone necrosis (Osgood Schlatter disease) can be treated.

If the tendons are stimulated, both long-standing and recent injuries can heal.

NEW: Whole-body therapy for osteopenia and osteoporosis with the OSTEO SPIN.
orthomolecular medicine
High dose ozone therapy
Extracellular heavy metal elimination
Wound healing disorders
circulatory disorders
Increase in defenses
increase in well-being
Innovative surgical treatment of all joints
Outpatient needle arthroscopy
With needle arthroscopy, a direct diagnostic view of the joint is possible. It does not require anesthesia for this.
