Michal Průša (52 years old) graduated from the 1st Faculty of Medicine of Charles University in 1988. He has been working at Hořovice Hospital since the beginning of 2006. During this time, he has been the head of the anaesthesiology and resuscitation department and the deputy director for medical care. Many patients of Hořovice Hospital also know him as the head of the pain management clinic.
Prior to joining the hospital in Hořovice, Michal Průša worked at the Strakonice Hospital (1991-1997), at the Motol University Hospital (1997-2002), where he worked as an attending physician, and from 2002 to January 2006 he worked as the head of the A&E department and at the same time as deputy director at the Nymburk Hospital. MUDr. Michal Průša also specialized in palliative medicine and algesiology and for more than ten years he has been working as a guarantor of the pain management outpatient clinic in IKEM Prague.
The new director of the Hořovice Hospital has obtained the first and second degree attestation in anaesthesiology and resuscitation and attestation in algesiology and palliative medicine. Last year he also completed his management studies and obtained an MBA degree.
Although MUDr. Michal Průša still resides in Prague, in recent years he has been spending most of his personal time in Hořovice. His family roots come from the nearby surroundings and he himself spent almost his entire childhood here and has a personal relationship not only to the local region but also to the hospital in Hořovice, where he spent many months after a severe childhood accident.
Among his many hobbies, apart from his work, especially history, art, especially painting, he is also interested in nature and ichthyology.
"In recent years, the Hořovice Hospital has undergone extensive reconstruction and modernisation of the interiors and the technological equipment itself. We now have excellent facilities in which our quality team of doctors, nurses and other staff provide top-quality services to all patients. My aim is to develop all these parts further and improve them in the future. Therefore, we will be opening an expanded and newly refurbished orthopaedic department in early May. This will complete the eight-year process of reconstruction of the hospital and will shift our attention to other areas such as solving the pressing parking problem," says the new director of Hořovice Hospital, Michal Průša, MD.
The hospital currently has over 600 employees and 250 beds. Patients not only from the Central Bohemian Region but also from all over the country are provided with a comprehensive range of quality medical care.
