Physician for Dermatology & Venereology
Holistic Health Expert

Since childhood, I have been passionately fascinated by medicine. After starting my career in internal medicine, I was able to gain valuable experience before specializing in dermatology. My professional journey includes positions at the University Hospital Zurich as well as in several outpatient clinics in Zurich City, Winterthur, and Uster.

I have a strong interest in root-cause medicine, including orthomolecular medicine, functional medicine, and epigenetics. My calling is to help people improve their health and to work together with them to uncover the underlying causes of their symptoms and conditions. I place great importance on a holistic and individualized approach to care.

This is why I developed the HealVitalityMed (HVM) concept, which stands for health and vitality combined with medical expertise and knowledge. This unique concept is based on a systematic search for imbalances and root causes in the body. I consider not only physical but also psychological ailments, as these are often closely linked. The HVM concept aims to find sustainable solutions to promote the overall health and vitality of my patients.

Eczema, also known as dermatitis, is uncomfortable and can significantly impact daily life. Whether it's contact dermatitis or atopic eczema, each form requires specific and individualized treatment.

Neurodermitis

We use our expertise in both personalized therapy and extemporaneous preparations to treat neurodermatitis, also known as atopic dermatitis or atopic eczema. Treating this chronic, non-contagious, mostly itchy skin rash is one of our specialities.
