Bridging the gap between Medicine & the Law
Mr Thomas Kossmann, an international orthopaedic surgeon founded Lex Medicus, together with Associate Professor Cristina Morganti-Kossmann and their daughter Giulia, after becoming interested in medico-legal matters and medicine. This is where our slogan ‘Bridging the gap between Medicine & the Law’ was born.
