About me

I am the Senior Physician and Associate Professor at the Department of General Gynecology and Gynaecologic Oncology at the Medical University of Vienna. As part of my specialist training, I attended a renowned centre for gynaecological oncology in 2008 with Prof. Obermair in Brisbane, Australia. In 2014, I completed the certified 3-year program of the European Society of Gynaecologic Oncology. As part of this specialisation, I spent 15 months as a specialist at one of the world's largest ovarian carcinoma centres with Prof. du Bois at the Kliniken-Essen-Mitte in Germany.
I am highly experienced in the field of minimally invasive surgery and robot-assisted laparoscopy. I focus on the diagnosis and treatment of cervical dysplasia and genetics in the field of gynaecological oncology.
I am an active researcher with over 100 publications in medical journals. I am also a reviewer for several journals in the field of gynaecology and oncology. I am an active lecturer both nationally and internationally, and I supervise medical theses.
I am convinced that through active scientific research, one is always forced to be current with the pulse of the times, thereby enabling his patients to receive optimal, state-of-the-art and individualised care.
Clinical focus:

• Operative and conservative treatment of gynaecological diseases
• Treatment of gynaecological cancers and their precursors (dysplasias)
• Human Papillomaviruses (HPV)
• Gynecological check-up and further clarification of conspicuous test results
• Genetic counselling for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, early detection, risk-reducing surgery
