Back Pain

...can have many causes

Do you suffer from acute, chronic, or recurring pain in the spine, or experience sensory disturbances/numbness in your hands, feet, or chest area, or even paralysis symptoms?
Dr. Eleonore Hecking is a specialist in Neurosurgery, Orthopaedics & Traumatology, and Trauma Surgery.
She personally diagnoses, treats, and—if necessary—operates on you, and also takes care of your post-operative recovery.

Pain / problems: fingers / hand / elbow

...require professional evaluation

Diagnosis and treatment of pain in the hand and entire upper extremity have been Dr. Eleonore Hecking’s specialty for many years. Referrals and appointments for imaging (CT or MRI), neurophysiological testing (nerve conduction studies), and administration of injections or shockwave therapy are organized as needed.
Post-operative care is personally planned and supervised by Dr. Eleonore Hecking.
Close cooperation with qualified physiotherapists and occupational therapists is a hallmark of her approach.

Your first visit

Step by step toward recovery

Medical history
During your first appointment, a precise diagnosis is made. If necessary, we arrange imaging appointments (X-ray, MRI, CT).

Therapy plan
Together, we discuss the best therapy for you — whether movement / pain therapy or a necessary surgical procedure.

Follow-up / Rehabilitation planning
Your health is your greatest asset. That’s why I place great importance on thorough follow-up after surgery and on planning rehabilitation together with experienced physiotherapists and occupational therapists.

Patient feedback

What my patients say

Competent & compassionate — simply outstanding
After breaking my little finger, I was operated on by Dr. Hecking. I would like to especially emphasize her expertise and professional competence, as I rely on having full mobility in my right hand. I was also deeply impressed by her warm and caring manner — and her meticulous attention during follow-up care!

5/5

An exceptional doctor of the highest caliber
I suffered from a recurring dermatofibroma on the little finger of my left hand. Dr. Hecking explained with great sensitivity that a second procedure was necessary. She performed the surgery herself, and it was covered by my health insurance without any additional private costs. For me, she is the best hand surgeon.
