ABOUT US

Dr Georg Hochheuser

As a specialist in orthopaedics, trauma surgery and surgery, Dr Georg Hochheuser is your contact for bone, joint and muscle pain. The experienced and internationally recognised foot specialist also specialises in innovative minimally invasive foot surgery (MIS) procedures. As one of the German pioneers of this technique, Dr Hochheuser was the first surgeon in Augsburg to introduce minimally invasive surgery for hallux deformity. He is a proven specialist in this field and, together with Dr H. Leidolf (Innsbruck/Vienna) and Dr F. Mattes (Überlingen), is head of the minimally invasive foot surgery (MIS) working group of the GFFC and has been a speaker and instructor at courses and congresses of both the GFFC and the GRECMI for many years.
