Three Hangodys at Dr. Rose

Prof. László Hangody’s own father was a general surgeon, and now two of Prof. Hangody’s three sons - Dr. László Rudolf Hangody and Dr. György Márk Hangody - have become orthopedic surgeons as well. Many doctors have an inherited vocation within their families, but it is very much a rarity for some surgeries to be performed together by a father and his two sons. At Dr. Rose Private Hospital, everything is provided to perform orthopedic surgeries and related research and innovation using state-of-the-art surgical techniques.

Advice for heart conditions

Cardiovascular diseases account for about 50-60 percent of all deaths in Hungary, with most caused by atherosclerosis.

Of course, our heart can be attacked by other diseases, but just like atherosclerosis, most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented, the risk of developing them can be reduced, and more and more advanced therapies can prevent a serious condition once the problem has occurred. Dr. Éva Junger, head of outpatient care at Dr. Rose Private Hospital, internist, cardiologist, and occupational health specialist, outlines the details.
