Tell us about your professional interests other than your specialization:

• "I’ve always been interested in psychology, and I integrate this knowledge into my practice to help patients take a comprehensive approach to their problems and find the most effective treatment options. I often encounter patients with symptoms that may not only be neurological but also related to other fields of medicine. For example, some types of dizziness are linked to ENT pathologies, episodes of unconsciousness may stem from cardiac issues, and certain complaints may result from infectious or dermatological conditions. I continuously expand my knowledge to provide the highest level of care."

Doctor's advice:

• "Take care of your health as carefully as you care for your appearance. If you have risk factors, such as heredity or other concerns, schedule regular check-ups even if you feel fine. This helps detect potential issues early and prevents complications. Trust your doctor and follow all their recommendations. Always maintain feedback and don’t skip follow-up consultations to adjust treatments. Only through a trusting dialogue with your doctor can you achieve the best treatment results!"
