Hands-off Observership (Hospitation) for Non-EU Physicians — UKE, incl. Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery
Chief physician of hosting Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery department
UKE publishes the name as M. Blessmann and the department role as Chefarzt. The hands-off observership pathway does not appoint this person as every visitor’s individual supervisor. The initial is retained without guessing a full first name. The UKE foundation identifies the same UKE plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic department chief as Marco Blessmann. The UKE International Office CV corroborates that full name and department. The existing initial-based name and person URL are retained.
