Default Changes at the Alpha Klinik

It's been a little confusing for patients in the past, because there were 2 separate spine clinics operating at the Alpha Klinik. Dr. Hoogland (with Zeegers, Schubert, Wagner; operate Hoogland Spine. Dr. Dekkers with Frank operates out of Dekkers spine.

There is a lot of misinformation out there on the internet because people don't understand that when you say the AlphKlinik, you may be talking about a different center.

If you look on the Alpha Klinik website now, you'll see that is now only one spine center... Hoogland spine. Dr. Toft still operates his world famous knee center as well.

I don't know the details about what happened to Dekkers, but when you hear about Alpha Klinik rumors, you may be hearing about why Dekkers is gone. This may have absolutely nothing to do with Hoogland, Zeegers, Schubert, Wagner and the rest of the amazing staff there.

Don't panic... we'll know more soon. Try not to let rumors run rampant...

All the best,

Mark

It was published in the German press that Dekkers had some legal troubles which may have caused his disappearance form the AlphaKlinik.

In fact government of Bayern revoke his medical license without possibility to appeal. As result Alphaklinik canceled contract with (ex)Dr.Dekkers. Couldn't find what caused this government's decision except that there is a case against Dr.Dekkers where 6 patients asking for a millions in compensations (in German http://www.abendzeitung.de/muenchen/26283 & http://www.presseportal.de/pm/37889/...phaklinik_gmbh ).

You will note that ALL of Dekkers' practice is gone ... including any trace of Dr. Bertagnoli.

Google, of course, is omnicient/omnipresent/omnipotent and never forgets:
Search: AlphaKlinik Bertagnoli

Presse. Alphaklinik - die Spezialisten für minimalinvasive Knie ...Dr. Bertagnoli jetzt auch im Kompetenzteam von Drs. Dekkers an der Alpha Klinik. 10.10.2006. Dr. Rudolf Bertagnoli, der weltweit führende Spezialist für ...
