I became interested in surgery of the digestive system during my studies at the University of Perugia in Italy. I then continued my training by specializing in general surgery at the San Raffaele University Hospital in Milan, Italy. I then moved to Switzerland, where I had the unique opportunity to deepen my knowledge and skills in visceral surgery (with a focus on digestive surgery) at the Zurich Surgical Center under the direction of Professor Schoeb. Working closely with Professor Jan Schmidt over the years, I was able to expand my knowledge and skills in pancreatic and liver surgery, and under the guidance of Professor Paul Magnus Schneider, I mastered the intricacies of esophageal and gastric surgery. I still work closely with both of these professors in my daily practice. Since the beginning of 2024, I have been working as a recognized surgeon at the Hirslanden and Klinik im Park in Zurich, where I also have my own practice.
I am a Swiss-Italian citizen and speak German, Italian, French and English. Thanks to my Slavic roots, I also speak fluent Russian and Ukrainian.
