About me

I have experience in general surgery of over 10 years, with a focus on colorectal surgery, surgical oncology, minimally invasive surgery, and transplant surgery. I have finished my education in Vienna at the Medical University and completed a surgical oncology/colorectal fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.
My scientific interest is mainly in colorectal cancer and transplantation. In addition, I am a member of the scientific advisory board of Lumendi LTD. The company aims to develop new tools for endoscopic GI procedures.
