The first Orthopedic Trauma Specialist Assistants (OTF) in Germany

At the beginning of 2016, a new specialist training for medical assistants was introduced, which concludes with the specialization “Orthopedic traumatology specialist assistant” (OTF). Luisa and Romina, from our practice, took part in the nationwide first qualification course and successfully passed the OTF final test in June 2017. We are pleased that our employees have taken several courses in Hamburg and are among the first OTFs in Germany. This also demonstrates that we take seriously the further education of our employees. Because only up-to-date employees can help our patients in difficult situations.

First MRI scan in Bad Vilbel opened!

Today we are finally ready to put our new exclusive open MRI scanner in service. It was worth waiting, we can promise. We have put a lot of work into its implementation and also paid attention to the smallest details. We want to offer you a fear-free comfortable alternative to the usual closed MRI examinations. We also take care of you personally and no one needs to be afraid of “assembly line handling”. You can select your desired music or movie that you wanna listen to or watch during the examination. Our latest device from Hitachi is comparatively quiet and also protects your ears. Unfortunately, we can offer our service only to private patients and self-payers since the costs are not covered by public health insurance.

Dr. Mahn with the U19 national team in Lübeck

From the 14th to the 18th of April, Dr. Mahn is the DFB team doctor of the U19 team in a training camp in Lübeck, ending with a match against Denmark. This is the last U19 international match before the European Championship in July in Georgia. During this time, he can unfortunately not offer personal consultation and the surgery days are also canceled. He is back in the practice on April 19th and the next surgery day is on April 25th. The practice is, however, open and Dr. Mahn will be represented during the consultation by her colleague, Dr. Dr. Müller-Rau. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.

Happy Easter!

Dear patients, customers, cooperation partners and assigners!

The fasting time is almost over and Easter is coming again. As always in our practice, a lot has happened. A female employee temporarily took her maternity and parental leave, and there were also changes in the medical field. We are particularly pleased that our new open MRI will soon be opened after an extended construction phase.

We wish you all the best!

Your Team Dr. Mahn

Article in the Frankfurter Neue Presse: “Board-certified Physician in Bad Vilbel: The first MRI Scan is floating in the air”

On Monday, December 19th, 2016, the Frankfurter Neue Presse reported on the first Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan for the city of Bad Vilbel, which was imported from Japan. We are glad that everything went smoothly and we would like to thank the people, who accepted understandingly the blocking of the Frankfurter Street from 7:00 pm to 4:00 am. Numerous citizens had appeared to witness the introduction of the machine into the building with a crane. The applause was great when around 11pm the heavy medical device had made its way to the first floor. Read the complete article here (in German).

Now the highly specialized practice is being built around the hightech device and we expect to be completed within the next three months so that we can open in spring. We are glad that a large number of patients can be examined with a MRI scan at their place of residence, thereby avoiding the road to Frankfurt or other surrounding cities. We are especially proud to be able to offer you examinations in an extremely comfortable open MRI scan of the latest generation.

First MRI scanner procured in Bad Vilbel

drmahn-mrt-cut

The long-awaited day comes on Saturday, December 17th: Bad Vilbel finally receives a magnetic resonance imaging scanner (MRI). As the article in the Frankfurt newspaper Neue Presse reported, this investment closes a gap in medical care infrastructure for the city. After the opening of an MRI and X-ray practice by a radiologist ended up failing for various reasons, Dr. Mahn himself took action and invested in high-tech equipment for his practice at Niddaplatz. The new open MRI scanner—representing the latest generation manufactured by Hitachi—was delivered on December 17, 2016 and transported through the previously opened facade. To achieve this feat, the Frankfurter Straße has to be barricaded off completely from 19:00 CET into the early hours of the morning. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience.

In his function as a German Football Association (DFB) team physician, Dr. Mahn will accompany the under-19 footballers to Spain and attend to them at a training camp from November 6 to 16, 2016. During these 10 days, the German team will play an international match against the Czech Republic. Of course, Dr. Mahn cannot be personally available for office hours or surgeries during this time. However, he’s back in the practice on November 17 and his next surgery date is scheduled for November 22. The practice will remain open as usual with Dr. Mahn’s colleagues filling in for him. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope for your understanding.

At the start of the UEFA European Football Championship in France, the journalist Dieter Deul took the opportunity to interview Dr. Mahn and pose specific questions about his clinical focus on sports medicine. His interests cover football (German Football Association (DFB), Swiss Football Association), track and field, golf and other athletic disciplines. The interview focused on Dr. Mahn’s work as team physician for the DFB. This fascinating sideline in professional sports is only made possible by Mr. Diaz competent representation in the practice. In other words, Mr. Diaz has got Dr. Mahn’s back.
