Patient Testimonials

About

I try to approach patients with maximum knowledge and maximum courtesy.

Dr. Gergely Holnapy was already oriented towards the manual professions during his university studies, and as a fourth-year student he wrote a rector’s proposal on a treatment method used in paediatric orthopaedics. From there it was a straight road to the present day, full of conferences and fellowships in this country, in Europe and abroad.

“I was at Semmelweis University when the gates were opened to make it easier to travel, not just for tourism, but also for professional reasons. If you want to go in a certain direction, to get more information, you need to experience other treatment approaches, other therapies, so that you can develop your own method. That’s why the experience gained abroad and at home was extremely important.”

Outside of work, he loves cycling for sport and skiing in winter.

“Exercise is part of my life, although in this hectic world it’s not easy to find time to relax. However, in the rush of everyday life, taking care of patients becomes even more precious.” – says Dr Gergely Holnapy.

In his view, professional knowledge is only one of the factors that can improve the lives of patients. However, the circumstances in which we approach patients, the level of explanation, care and empathy, also play at least as important a role.

“This is particularly true in the case of paediatric patients, where we often have to talk to children and their parents about the problem in a different light, but at the same time. These two communications can be very different, yet they are equally important.”

As an orthopaedic specialist, he specialises in adult orthopedics and also treats a number of paediatric patients here at the practice. He says that many children are brought in for examination when parents are unsure about a developmental change. They want to confirm from an orthopedics professional’s perspective whether this is normal or abnormal growth or change. Fortunately, these changes are more often in their normal direction than abnormal.
