For pain, restricted mobility, and shoulder injuries, Prof. Ockert is your expert in the greater Munich area, whether you are a statutory health insurance patient, a private patient, or a self-payer.

The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the human body – and is exposed to enormous stress every day.

Whether at work, during sports, or in everyday life, shoulder pain can significantly limit your quality of life. The symptoms often arise from overuse, wear and tear, or injuries, for example, to the rotator cuff or the shoulder joint itself.

Accidents or sporting activities also often lead to damage to tendons, ligaments or muscles of the shoulder .

Our experienced orthopedic surgeon knows that similar symptoms can have very different causes. Therefore, a thorough examination is crucial.

Our diagnosis is based on a detailed patient interview (anamnesis), a targeted clinical examination and modern imaging techniques such as MRI or ultrasound.

Thanks to medical advances, many shoulder problems can now be treated successfully – conservatively or surgically, depending on the diagnosis.
