Tell us about your professional interests other than your specialization:

• "In my practice, I often encounter symptoms that go beyond gastroenterology. That’s why I additionally study psychiatry and neurology — these fields provide a deeper understanding of the patient as a whole, especially in cases of psychosomatic disorders or complex diagnostics. This interdisciplinary approach helps me see the full clinical picture and choose the most effective treatment."
