My medical career has been shaped by many years of experience in internal medicine as well as in pre-hospital and hospital-based acute and emergency medicine.
Caring for people across a wide range of ages and stages of life has shaped my perspective on medicine: symptoms and illnesses need to be treated with expertise – while at the same time, we should make full use of the opportunities available to preserve health and prevent disease as early as possible.
Today, I therefore combine my experience in traditional internal medicine with primary care, preventive and nutritional medicine, and modern Healthy Aging concepts.
I believe in medicine that is scientifically grounded while remaining personal.
Medicine that listens, looks at the bigger picture, and works with you to decide what truly makes sense for your health.
Shaping your health with foresight.
