Through my professional practice, I have gained experience in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of endocrine disorders (pituitary, adrenal, and thyroid conditions).
I am particularly motivated by the management of obesity and eating disorders, given the range of treatment options—including medication (Munjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic), surgery, and nutritional counseling.
During my practice in private practice, I have treated pituitary adenomas, adrenal adenomas, thyroid disorders, gynecomastia, and provided psychotherapy.
My practice in my second specialty, psychotherapy, stems from my desire to improve the management of obesity by addressing eating disorders and the psychological consequences related to self-esteem and self-assertion.
These two specialties are complementary and benefit my patients.
I am a member of the FMH in endocrinology and licensed to practice endocrinology.
