Media & Press

Our media hub is the central contact point for professional communication. We support reporting on orthopedic diseases, conservative therapies, regeneration and prevention - understandable, technically sound and without advertising promises. Upon request, we can provide background information, original sounds, qualified experts from our team, as well as image and logo sets for editorial use.

• Press contact for interviews, statements and fact checks
• Downloads: Logos, practical images, short biographies, fact sheet
• Advice on filming requests in practice (photo/TV/online)
• Current news, videos/podcasts and event information
• Guidelines on citation, source information and image rights

We value transparent, evidence-based communication. Statements are made within the framework of the current data situation; We cannot make individual diagnoses or treatment decisions in the media context.

The best way to reach us for interview and filming appointments, original soundbites, background discussions or fact checks is by email. Please briefly outline the topic, medium, format, deadline and desired speaker. We will get back to you as soon as possible with availability, the next possible slots and, if necessary, any questions.

• Preferred initial contact: Email to info@citak.de
• Appointments for urgent inquiries should be scheduled on the same working day if possible
• Preparation: topic profile, list of questions, planned scope (characters/minutes)
• Formats: written statements, live/recorded interviews, studio or on-site appointments
• Location: Dorotheenstraße 48, 22301 Hamburg. Good accessibility by public transport; For details see the arrival section

Important: As a medical practice, we make no promises of healing. Statements are of a general nature, do not replace individual investigation and refer to the current state of knowledge. There are no product recommendations or advertising for individual providers.

We provide a compact press kit for editorial use. It contains tested materials for quick production. Use is free of charge in an editorial context, subject to the stated source and license information.

• Logo package (various formats, light/dark, vector/RGB)
• Practical images (interior/exterior views, team atmosphere without patient recognition)
• Short profile of the practice (focus, location, contact details)
• Short biographies of selected contact persons
• Fact Sheet: Services with a focus on conservative orthopedics, office hours, location information

You can find current files in our download area. If you need additional motifs or special resolutions (e.g. print), please contact us. For images with people, we ensure that motifs comply with data protection regulations or are obscured.

We cover the orthopedic spectrum in a way that is understandable to patients - with a particular focus on conservative therapeutic approaches, prevention and realistic expectation management. Regenerative procedures are explained with clear indications, scientific classification and information.

• Complaints and illnesses: knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, hand, foot/ankle, spine
• Conservative orthopedics: physiotherapy, exercise, relief, splints/insoles, injections including evidence-based indications
• Sports orthopedics: overloads, tendon/ligament problems, return to activity
• Osteoarthritis classification: stages, everyday relevance, options without surgery
• Regeneration/biological processes: e.g. B. PRP – opportunities, limitations, data situation
• Diagnostics: clinical examination, imaging (significance, limitations)
• Aspects relevant to work and everyday life: ergonomic tips, load control

We are also happy to examine trend topics (e.g. home office posture, running boom, club sports, senior sports) and classify study results - always with references to sources if available.

For clear, factual classification, we offer short statements, checklists or fact boxes. For complex contributions, we support you with background phone calls so that statements are reproduced correctly and in accordance with the context.

• Short statement (2-4 sentences) on current news
• Q&A via email for precise quotes without time pressure
• Telephone background conversation (off the record) for classification
• Fact check before the editorial deadline, if possible
• Sources: guidelines, meta-analyses, registry data, professional societies

Please label quotations clearly and give correct function names. We do not provide individual advice on patient data and do not provide remote diagnoses.

Filming is possible by appointment. Patient protection, hygiene and procedures during consultation hours have priority. We plan sufficient time slots and choose suitable rooms. We ask for your understanding for spontaneous recordings during ongoing practice operations if this is not possible for organizational or data protection reasons.

• Required: list of motifs, team size, technology list, desired original sounds, planned scope
• Data protection: No identifiable patients without written consent
• Hygiene and occupational safety: Instructions from the practice team are binding
• Times: Filming outside of main office hours preferred
• Image rights: Use only in the agreed editorial context; no edits that distort meaning

For larger productions, we recommend a short location scouting in advance. If necessary, we provide neutral demonstration materials (e.g. anatomical models). Medical procedures are not staged for media purposes.

Our team is available for medical lectures, patient-understandable keynote speeches or panel discussions - on site in Hamburg or digitally. Content is tailored to the target group (specialist audience vs. general population) and backed up with current sources.

• Patient evenings on conservative orthopedics and prevention
• Lectures on sports orthopedics, overloading, osteoarthritis management
• Workshops: ergonomic work, load control, return-to-activity
• Moderation and Q&A sessions, evidence-based and understandable

Please send suggested dates, desired topics and framework (duration, format, technology) by email. We publish announcements in the Events/News section.

You can find current reports from practice as well as understandable insights into orthopedic topics in our news and videos. We prepare content in a compact manner – with a focus on everyday benefits, limitations of the procedures and realistic expectations. We are happy to provide experts for interviews or recordings for podcasts.

• News: Updates from practice, research classification, information on office hours
• Videos: short explanatory pieces, insights into processes, security and data protection
• Podcasts/Audio: Original sounds, interview formats, classifications for contributions
• Social media: selected information about new content (without individual advice)
