Our specialist team

His professional career led Prof. Konrad from his studies in Würzburg and Munich to Klinikum Augsburg, where he had worked until 2001 under the direction of Prof. Rüter and completed his specialty training before he moved on to Freiburg University Hospital under the direction of Prof. Südkamp. The trauma surgeon considers shoulder surgery his special area of expertise, which is also reflected in his scientific work: He spent a year in Pittsburgh, USA, to do research in the field of shoulder biomechanics. Back in Germany, he continued working as consultant in Freiburg and completed his postdoctoral thesis in 2008.
