„In the beginning I had such great reservations for using braces - today it is my area of expertise.“
Karina Frömter, Director PodG Medical Practice for Podiatry in Nuremberg, Germany.
Karina Frömter is the director of her medical specialist practice for podiatry in Nuremberg and has been a passionate podiatrist for 10 years. She is also passionate about nail correction. Her deep knowledge in the RUCK NAIL CORRECTION systems led her to train as one of our RUCK Academy educators. In an exclusive interview, she tells us about the benefits of the Ortogrip brace in everyday practice and what she would like to share with “newcomers to bracing”. Karina regularly uses the RUCK® Nail Correction System ORTOGRIP professional braces in her practice. But as she tells us, this was not always the case. “At the beginning of my career, I had a such great reservations for using braces and avoided them. Until one day I just couldn’t make any progress with a patient.
That’s when I confronted the issue and today it’s my area of expertise.” Karina is convinced that offering professional nail correction systems brings clear added value for both the patient and the practice: “Patients often come to me with health problems that another podiatrist could not resolve. With the proper treatment, these patients become symptom-free again.” But she notes quite clearly that it is not only the patient’s well-being that is paramount, but also the business aspect of brace treatment that should be taken into account. - the expertise required for the treatments should be appropriately charged for.
