Specialist in internal medicine (D)

I am a specialist in angiology with many years of experience in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the blood and lymph vessels. In my daily work, I combine sound specialist knowledge with modern, gentle diagnostics and careful, individual treatment planning.

My aim is to take a holistic approach to vascular diseases, explain them clearly and accompany my patients with calm, precision and medical clarity - from the initial assessment to long-term care.

I have been involved in scientific work and university teaching for many years. In 2009, I was awarded a license to teach internal medicine with a focus on angiology at the Medical Faculty of the University of Bern. In 2011, I transferred to the University of Cologne, where I have been continuously involved in the training of medical students ever since.
