Bio
As a senior physician at the Department of Pulmonology at the University Hospital of Vienna and head of the sleep laboratory, pulmonary function laboratory as well as the PH outpatient clinic, I offer you the entire knowledge in my private medical practice in Ebreichsdorf.
Through my medical training in Austria and abroad, I am experienced with diagnostic procedures, interventions and various forms of pulmonary therapy. Bronchoscopies, endobronchial ultrasound and right heart catheter examinations are regularly performed by me at the University Hospital of Vienna.

I completed my scientific training with a PhD degree at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. My field of research focuses on the effects of cigarettes, e-cigarettes and nicotine on blood vessels and pulmonary function. Most recently it has shifted towards the effects of the SARS-CoV 2 – infection.
