Ulrich Nitsche: From Surgeon To Tüv Süd, And How To Combine Emergency Medicine With An Office Job
“You're not deciding about the fate of one patient, but of hundreds of thousands of patients at once”
Ulrich is one of those very rare physicians who ended up leaving the hospital after spending a considerable
amount of time in it. After studying medicine in Austria, he worked and qualified as a surgeon in Munich,
where he also did research and completed his habilitation. While he still was (and is) very passionate about
surgery, he decided to change his career by leaving the hospital and starting to work as a clinical reviewer
at Tüv Süd. He’s been there for some time now, and nowadays he works as a department manager there for a team
of doctors like him.
