About

Philosophy of care

I strive to approach patients with concern, from their level of understanding and without judgement.

Why I entered medicine

I enjoy microbiology – it has shaped the futures of countries, societies and cultures. Medicine allows me to act locally while thinking globally.

Personal interests

I enjoy volleyball, tennis and my two dogs, Bernie and Elin.
