Prof. Mayer believes that the development of sports traumatology is one of the keys to the success of an orthopedics hospital, since more and more athletes will choose this hospital once one top athlete has been treated there. This is the effect of word of mouth.
Prof. Mayer is not only a master in MISS, he is also a well-known expert in Sports Medicine. In 2007, Schön Klinik München Harlaching led by him become one of the first FIFA Medical Centers of Excellence. Currently there are 40 FIFA Medical Centers of Excellence worldwide, while there is no FIFA Center of Excellence in China to date.
Prof. Mayer also mentioned in the email that their research projects on the young football players with spinal diseases are supported by the FIFA. Since 1998, Prof. Mayer set up individual Sports Medicine groups respective within the Spine Center, Knee-Hip-Shoulder-Elbow Surgery Center, Foot and Ankle Surgery Center in Schön Klinik München Harlaching. Compared with establishing a Center for Sports Medicine, they realized that it may be better to set up sub-specialties for Sports Medicine according to anatomical parts, like spine, shoulder, hip, knee, foot and ankle, etc, which enables a more precise and efficient diagnosis and treatment for the patients.
