CV
Christian Roessing, M.D. studied at Charité in Berlin and at Northwestern University Medical School in Chicago (USA). He completed his specialist training in the Department of Plastic Surgery at Johanniter Hospital in Bonn and in the Department of Aesthetic Surgery at Luisenhospital in Aachen.
During his training, he completed internships at renowned clinics for plastic surgery, particularly in Chicago (Dr. P. McKinney, Dr. Mustoe) and at the University of Houston (USA). Later, he spent years as a senior physician, deputy chief physician, and finally chief physician with authorization to provide further training.
Lectures and publications at specialist congresses are as much a part of his profession as the further training of young doctors. The reason is simple: quality and treatment standards only remain high if they are actively passed on.
