When selecting our new practice car, we had several considerations beforehand. Like many people, I like some high-performance cars or the currently fashionable SUVs. The selection of these vehicles is almost overwhelming. However, it was important to consciously establish a connection to our daily work.
In few areas do findings change as rapidly as in shoulder surgery. Due to my specialization in this field, I am on the daily search for new, innovative techniques to even better treat various shoulder disorders. The goal was to find such an innovation in the new practice car.
We chose the BMW i3, in the all-electric version. An analysis of our old logbook showed that on more than 98% of all days, the daily distance traveled was less than 100 km. Most of the time, this was just city traffic. An area that the i3 is ideally suited to. After six months, it has become clear that my choice was absolutely the right one. Our new car combines innovation, environmental responsibility, and driving pleasure in a unique way and thus has a lot in common with shoulder surgery.
