Profile

I am a professional medical doctor practicing as a diabetologist, with vast experience in both the public and private healthcare sectors. I run my own private practice where I provide quality medical care to surrounding communities, and especially to diabetic patients.

I have a particular interest in diabetic technology — from insulin pump therapy to continuous glucose monitoring — and I believe modern tools, paired with patient education, lead to the best long-term outcomes.
