Theodor Ritter von Stockert (born December 29, 1938 in Frankfurt am Main ) is a German neurologist specializing in aphasia therapy .

Life

Theodor von Stockert is the third of four children of the psychiatrist Franz Günther von Stockert (1899–1967) and his wife Liesette (1907–1977), daughter of the psychiatrist Gabriel Anton (1858–1933). His maternal great-grandfather was the psychiatrist and neuroanatomist Theodor Meynert (1833-1892). Von Stockert attended elementary school and the Freiherr-vom-Stein-Gymnasium in Frankfurt. He then studied medicine in Frankfurt am Main and Vienna . At the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research he wrote his dissertation "Electron microscopic studies on Waller's degeneration" and received his doctorate in 1968 from the University of Frankfurt am Main with " magna cum laude ".

After working as a medical assistant in Munich and other places in southern Germany, von Stockert went to Bonn in 1968 to work at the Rheinische Landesklinik für Sprachverslinik. Here he worked with patients who had strokes on speech disorders suffered or aphasia. In 1971 he then went to Boston for a year at the aphasia center there under Norman Geschwind . After his return to Germany, von Stockert completed his neurological specialist training at the University of Ulm , then went to the Schmieder rehabilitation clinics on Lake Constance and from there in 1980 to the Psychiatric District Hospital in Erlangen . In 1984 he wrote a book about aphasia therapy and in 1985 developed the Erlangen program for aphasia therapy.

From 1989 he built up the department for clinical neuropsychology at the district clinics in Erlangen, which over the following years developed into its own clinic for neurological rehabilitation. His then novel idea of ​​moving rehabilitation from rural regions to a metropolitan area made it possible to better involve the relatives and to instruct them to release the patient early to their home environment and to continue treatment in a specially created day clinic .

Since his retirement at the end of 2003, von Stockert has been active as a senior partner at the Lingva Eterna Institute for Conscious Language in Erlangen. He is an active member of the Pegnese Flower Order , the oldest society for language and poetry in Germany, and a member of the historical society Museum.

Von Stockert married his wife Maren, b. Dresler. He has two daughters with her.
