Thirty years of clinical practice in hospitals in Greece and the United Kingdom: on the wards, on call, in infectious diseases units and in emergency departments.

From 2027: private practice in ArgyroupoliWhat this means for you
A doctor who has seen thousands of cases in hospital knows how to tell the minor from the serious, without overlooking the details.
She knows when you need a hospital
Experience in emergency care helps decide early whether you need urgent referral, and makes sure it happens properly, with all the information at hand.
Working with other specialists
Years of collaboration with haematologists, hepatologists, cardiologists and infectious disease specialists mean coordinated care when you need other doctors too.
Internal medicine covers the whole body. These are the fields in which she has worked in depth.
Infections
Persistent fever, urinary and respiratory tract infections, antibiotic-resistant bacteria, HIV and hepatitis. The right antibiotic, for the right length of time.
Liver
Raised liver enzymes, fatty liver (steatohepatitis), viral hepatitis and monitoring of chronic liver disease.
Hypertension and cardiovascular risk
Diagnosis and control of high blood pressure, cholesterol, and prevention of heart attack and stroke.
Diabetes, metabolism and thyroid
