I am board-certified in orthopaedic surgery and pain therapy. My medical education includes the University of Dusseldorf, St. Moritz, Switzerland, the Spine Center at the Orthopädische Klinik München-Harlaching, and the University Hospital in Quebec City, Canada.

I am experienced with performing a variety of injection procedures in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. For more than 15 years my main interest has been in endoscopic procedures, where I have broad experience in several techniques and approaches. I have been a lecturer of more than 200 scientific presentations and performed surgeries worldwide as a guest surgeon.

From 2003 to 2021 I served as Master Instructor for the Spine Intervention Society (SIS, formerly ISIS) in the US and Europe and was co-organiser of the European SIS workshops in Amsterdam, Netherlands. From 2006 to 2015 I served as President of the German Interventional Spine Society (GIW e.V.).

    First of all, I would like to sincerely thank you because I finally received answers and recommendations.
    I found out how many weeks of treatment I will need and what results I can expect. If the expected results do not appear, I now know which direction to take next.

    Dear Dr. Hess,

    I sincerely thank you for the attention you have given to my case and for the very detailed and extremely informative report you have provided.

    Since I naturally could not fully understand all the technical terms in the document upon receiving it, with the help of my neurologist I was able to grasp all the essential points, which confirmed to me the high level of professionalism with which you prepared the report.

    The conclusions I received are exactly what I was hoping for. They will help me, together with my doctors, to decide on the most appropriate steps to take toward as complete a recovery as possible.

    Once again, I am deeply grateful for your invaluable assistance.

    Best regards
