If, after exhausting all conservative treatment options, an operation is still necessary, this will be carried out either as an outpatient procedure in our own operating theatre in the case of minor operations or as an inpatient procedure at the Tauernklinikum or Privatklinikum Ritzensee in the case of major operations.
As a doctor with over 30 years of professional experience, lifelong professional training and extensive work abroad, I run a private practice and look forward to also improving your mobility through careful diagnoses, the use of state-of-the-art surgical methods or a prosthesis.

Hip pain, problems in the knee joint, ankle and tarsal joint reduce quality of life and are not just a constant, painful companion, but also unnecessary.
When coming to your personal appointment in my surgery, I will examine you thoroughly and precisely. I will gladly take the time to talk to you about your medical history – thus determining exactly from what your pain and problems result and whether surgery or a prosthesis are really necessary and sensible.
In addition to implantation of artificial joints (knee, hip, ankle), I specialise in foot surgery as my second specialist field. Numerous publications and lectures on this subject prove my credentials in this sub-specialisation.
In order to determine precisely what you need and provide detailed consultation, I look forward to welcoming personally you in my office soon!

Professional career:
I was born in Zell am See and studied at the Medical University of Innsbruck for 11 semesters (winning two performance scholarships each for the 2nd and 3rd sections), where I began my post-doctoral medical training in the University Department of General Surgery under Prof. Raimund Margreiter in Innsbruck in 2003.
As orthopaedics had already emerged as my preferred subject during my studies, I changed to the University Department of Orthopaedics Innsbruck (Prof. Martin Krismer) in 2005.
At the hospital in Innsbruck I was able to follow the development of the minimally invasive hip approach first-hand, before I moved to my home in Salzburg to the Paracelsus Medical University of Salzburg (Prof. U. Dorn) in 2006.
At the LKH Salzburg I had 7 years of experience with senior physician Dr Franz Landauer, an excellent mentor in the field of endoprosthetics, foot surgery and especially paediatric orthopaedics, and was allowed to lead the sports orthopaedic outpatient clinic here from 2011.
Dr Franz Landauer also taught me how immensely important it is to take patients seriously with all their fears and worries and to give them the feeling that they are in good hands.
In October 2012, I accepted the position of senior physician at the Orthopaedic Department of the Kardinal Schwarzenberg Hospital in Schwarzach under Dr Manfred Höflehner, since I, as a Pinzgau native, very much appreciate my homeland with all its beauty.

Innovations in plastic surgery by Prof. Felippe at Privatklinik Ritzensee
Minimally invasive plastic surgery
Facelifts and breast corrections with endoscopy or with small incisions are minimally invasive procedures offered by Prof. Felippe at Privatklinik Ritzensee.
Rhinoplasty – functional and aesthetic
Rhinoplasties are also performed in one session, in cooperation with the ENT Clinic, at the Ritzensee Private Clinic. Clarifications of functional problems and deformities are carried out using the latest video endoscopy and disturbances of the air valve passage are measured using “rhinometry” state-of-the-art equipment. This enables precise diagnosis and treatment.
Lipoedema
Increasing patient complaints with “heavy and thick” legs are detected by the most modern lipoedema diagnostics.
Prof. Felippe carries out a structured diagnosis and treatment plan for lipedema at the Ritzensee Private Clinic.
This also includes follow-up treatment with the support of specially trained occupational therapists and medically trained masseurs.
Breast diagnostics cooperation – Tauern diagnostics and Prof Felippe, plastic surgery
Expertise in breast surgery is provided by the excellent cooperation between Prof. Dr. Felippe and Tauerndiagnostik – Radiological Examinations at the Ritzensee Private Clinic.
Checks on breasts that have already been operated on, on “implant carriers” and also on patients with breast complaints can be carried out perfectly thanks to specialist plastic-surgical examinations and clarification using the most modern digital imaging procedures such as mammography and MRI. All “implant carriers” should routinely come in once a year for a check-up, regardless of whether they have complaints or not.

Hip pain, problems in the knee joint, ankle and tarsal joint reduce quality of life and are not just a constant, painful companion, but also unnecessary.
When coming to your personal appointment in my surgery, I will examine you thoroughly and precisely. I will gladly take the time to talk to you about your medical history – thus determining exactly from what your pain and problems result and whether surgery or a prosthesis are really necessary and sensible.
In addition to implantation of artificial joints (knee, hip, ankle), I specialise in foot surgery as my second specialist field. Numerous publications and lectures on this subject prove my credentials in this sub-specialisation.
In order to determine precisely what you need and provide detailed consultation, I look forward to welcoming personally you in my office soon!

The Department of Urology at the Salzburg Privatklinik Ritzensee specialises in the investigation and treatment of diseases of the urinary organs as well as the male genital organs. The urologists at Privatklinik Ritzensee specialise in conservative and surgical treatments.
For me as a specialist in urology and andrology, it is natural not only to respond to the needs of each patient individually, but also to keep myself informed about the latest research findings. The focus of my work is on personalised diagnostics and the treatment of prostate cancer, kidney tumours and bladder tumours, as well as robot-assisted surgery (intuitive surgical Da Vinci System), laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) and endo-urology.

I enjoyed my training in open and minimally invasive surgery with the most renowned urologists in Austria and today offer my patients many years of experience and a broad surgical spectrum. I also have extensive expertise in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer – from classic hormone therapy to chemotherapy and modern treatment options.
In addition to my practical activities, numerous study visits and work shadowing, I have been active in the national and European professional society for urology since the beginning of my training. In this context, I was involved, among other things, in the co-founding and organisation of the Austrian School of Urology and the Austrian Society of Urology. I follow medical studies nationally and internationally, am a lecturer myself and author of numerous professional articles.
In my private life, I am happily married and the proud father of a daughter. When I’m not looking after the well-being and recovery of my patients, I enjoy time on my racing bike or on skis and turn to my guitar in bad weather.

Gynaecology is one of the most sensitive areas of modern medicine. It requires a close, trusting relationship between the patient and the attending doctor. The specialists at the Privatklinik Ritzensee not only have in-depth training and many years of experience, but also pronounced sensitivity to the needs of their patients. These conditions, as well as the pleasant ambience in the private clinic, ensure the greatest possible well-being during treatment. The experienced experts in the field of gynaecology will inform you about the various examinations and any necessary treatments during a detailed preliminary consultation.
A healthy diet and a mindful lifestyle can contribute significantly to women’s health. During the preventative medical check-ups, genetic and lifestyle-related factors are also determined and any existing diseases are counteracted. We recommend that you have your gynaecological check-up once a year.
The screening benefits for women in detail:
In addition to the annually recommended preventative examinations, patients have the opportunity to have a mammogram as part of the Tauerndiagnostik services. The state-of-the-art device used for this purpose, the “Siemens Mammomat Inspiration Prime”, sets new standards for reduced-dose mammography and impresses with its incomparable image quality. With the integrated 3D tomosynthesis, the diagnosis is more accurate than before and the number of false-positive findings is significantly reduced. Patients of all health insurance funds benefit from a considerably more pleasant, faster and less radiation-intensive examination procedure. The team is also specially certified in the field of breast screening.
The examinations take place on an outpatient basis in the office of the chosen doctor or at the Tauerndiagnostik Centre in the Privatklinik Ritzensee.
Price information & appointments
Prostate cancer is still one of the most common malignant tumours in men. Caught early, this type of cancer is curable in many cases. We recommend that men aged 45 and over have an annual examination, which can provide such early detection.
Components of the screening examination for men:
In addition to urological screening, the services offered by the Privatklinik Ritzensee focus on:
A healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet and enough exercise can help prevent disease. take advantage of the opportunity to have a preventative medical check-up in Pinzgau in order to detect possible diseases at an early stage and to be able to counteract them in a targeted way. Our experts in the field of urology are happy to conduct detailed consultations and are personally available to answer your questions.
The examinations take place on an outpatient basis in the office of the chosen doctor or at the Tauerndiagnostik Centre in the Privatklinik Ritzensee.
