About me
Dr. Zsolt Zsákai
Consultant
In 2003, I graduated from the General Medicine Faculty of the University of Szeged. After graduation, I started to work at the Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County Hospital and University Teaching Hospital as an orthopaedic-traumatology Resident Doctor. I gained my Board Certification in 2009, after which I continued my work as a Specialist Doctor at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery of the aforementioned hospital, where I am still working. On the 3rd of July 2015, I was given the title of Assistant Professor and on the 1st oh July 2019, I was given the title of Consultant Orthopedic Surgeon. Since 2017, I have been giving lectures as a Teaching Fellow at the Health Care Faculty of the University of Miskolc. In 2021, I became the Deputy Chief Physician of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, and in November 2022, the Chief Physician of the appointed Head of Department.
My field of interest encompasses the area of orthopaedic surgery, including both degenerative and post-traumatic joint and bone deformities and diseases of the spine, hip, knees and ankles.
At my orthopaedic private practice, I provide care both for adult and paediatric patients. I have a special interest in the conservative and surgical treatment of shoulder and elbow joint diseases.
Beginning in 2016 and 2017, I have introduced anterior approach hip replacement surgeries without muscle detachment and arthroscope-assisted hip surgeries performed with minimal exposure into my practice.
During my work, I have experienced that in a hospital-based setting often there is not enough time or a sufficiently discrete environment to reveal the reasons for the patients’ symptoms and for a thorough assessment that considers all possibilities. This is why I have established a private orthopaedic practice, so I can treat my present and future patients’ complaints in the interest of a quick recovery and to their maximum satisfaction while guaranteeing complete discretion.
