Breast SurgeryFMH for Surgery
Core competencies
Specialist in surgery, exclusively active in the field of breast surgery since 2015. Since 2016, I have been a core team member of the SGS-certified Breast Center Stephanshorn. I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of benign and malignant diseases of the breast. The diagnosis includes biopsies (core biopsies and vacuum biopsies) performed sonographically and stereotactically (under X-ray control). This enables me to carry out further clarifications of findings within the DONNA Screening Program. Surgical therapy also includes oncoplastic surgery of the breast.
