Listening comes first.
I listen… I take the time to truly listen to my patients. As I listen, I observe their enthusiasm, wishes, fears, excitement and expectations… I ask questions and receive answers; I answer many questions myself, with patience and care.
What matters is clearly understanding what my patients feel and what they want. I need to understand so that I can respond to their requests in the most appropriate and safest way. After all, isn't clear communication and the trust it brings the most important part of what leads us to success?
Staying curious.
I read… I am always reading and researching new techniques and developments. Not only in plastic surgery, but across every field of medicine. I also keep up with art, music and fashion, because our work is influenced by artistic perspectives and fashion trends too.
Our health is our most valuable asset, and protecting it is our most important duty as physicians. I attend national and international congresses, following developments in aesthetics through these platforms as well.
Being part of life.
I exercise… Whenever I have the opportunity, I take part in sports and try to encourage my patients to do the same. I emphasize the importance of a balanced diet and regular exercise.
Between us, it is true that I have played basketball and tennis and gone cycling with my patients. And shared a coffee… Over that cup of coffee, as time allows, we talk, share our troubles, feel sadness together and laugh together again… It is true.
I hope we can meet over a coffee…
