Through my professional practice, I have gained experience in diagnosing, managing, and treating endocrine diseases (pituitary, adrenal, thyroid diseases, and diabetes).

The management of obesity and eating disorders particularly motivates me due to its aspects of medication treatment (Saxenda, Wegovy, Ozempic), surgical treatment, and research.

During my professional practice in my private practice, I have dealt with pituitary adenomas, adrenal adenomas, thyroid diseases, diabetes, and psychotherapy.

My interest in psychotherapy, my second specialty, stems from the desire to improve the management of obesity and chronic endocrine diseases as well as poor therapeutic compliance. These two specialties are complementary and beneficial to patients.

I am a member of FMH Endocrinology and also authorized to practice endocrinology and diabetology in the canton of Geneva.
