Shock in the hospital: Innsbruck's surgery boss flies out!

Innsbruck, Österreich - A surprising bang has shaken the university clinic for oral, jaw and facial surgery in Innsbruck: Director Andreas Kolk was removed from his management office. The renowned doctor, who was able to take up his job on July 1, 2019 and was then considered "ideal occupation", described his release as "unjustified" and made serious allegations against the clinic management. Kolk, who has worked at the interface between medical and dental care for years, sees his services in patient care and interdisciplinary networking.

background of the decision

according to reports from krone.at the reason for his deduction has so far been unclear, but there are significant tensions within the clinic that could be reflected in the recent decision. While Kolk still seems to have the trust of his employees and patients, the future of the clinic under new management is now uncertain. The clinic for oral, jaw and plastic facial surgery in Frankfurt am Main, which also relies on excellent patient care and innovative research projects, could be a comparison in this regard. There is great emphasis on interdisciplinary cooperation and comprehensive specialist training, as reported by the clinic's website.

Developments at the Innsbruck Clinic raise questions about the stability of the leadership and the further direction in mouth, jaw and facial surgery. The clinic in Frankfurt not only offers a wide range of treatments and operations in this area, but is also known for its advanced research projects to improve patient care. It remains to be seen how this situation will develop in Innsbruck and whether new concepts for the continuation of the clinic will be developed.
