Understanding health, making decisions with confidence

When the knees, hips, or back cause discomfort, many questions arise: Which treatment is suitable for the personal situation? When is a conservative therapy helpful? And when is an intervention sensible? The lecture series Series of Health: Knee, Hip & Spine invites you on October 6, 2026, to the Oberlinklinik Potsdam, providing medical information clearly, realistically, and directly from orthopedic practice.

Three lectures, three perspectives on modern orthopedics

The event afternoon combines current treatment options with concrete insights into knee, hip, and spine surgery. Kicking things off from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM is the lecture Modern Knee Endoprosthesis: What Can a Robot Do in the Operating Room? The focus will be on how robotic-assisted systems support the planning and execution of a knee operation.

From 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM, the lecture Hip Surgery through the Keyhole: Minimally Invasive Surgery, Quickly Back to Daily Life will follow. This lecture highlights minimally invasive procedures, new hip joints, and revision surgeries. Finally, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM, we will discuss Spine Operations: Is Every Intervention Necessary? The focus here will be on individual decision-making and possible alternatives.

Expert knowledge from Oberlinklinik

Speaking as experts will be Dr. Patrick Schmidt, Chief Physician of General Orthopedics, Burkhard Schmidt, Chief Physician of the Endoprosthetics Center, and Dr. Sascha Schneider, Chief Physician of the Spine Center. The Oberlinklinik is one of the large orthopedic specialist clinics in Brandenburg and is certified as an Endoprosthetics Center of maximum care.

The event concept focuses on understandable health communication instead of jargon. After each lecture, there will be time for personal questions. Visitors can experience the entire lecture afternoon or selectively choose the lecture that suits their concern.

Personal questions are explicitly welcome

The atmosphere stays approachable and dialog-oriented: Instead of general buzzwords, concrete complaints, treatment options, and the individual path to the appropriate therapy are in the spotlight. This makes the event interesting for patients, relatives, and anyone wanting to learn about modern orthopedics early on.

Conclusion: Medical orientation firsthand

Series of Health offers compact lectures, medical expertise, and space for personal questions. Those who want to learn more about knee endoprosthetics, minimally invasive hip surgery, or spine operations will experience an informative health afternoon with direct practical relevance in Potsdam. Participation is free of charge.
