As urologist, I would like to make all of my expertise available to all patients and to advise and care for you in conservative and surgical matters. In the course of my work as senior physician in the teaching hospital KH der Barmherzigen Brüder, I can offer a wide range of treatment options and an interdisciplinary care not only in the practice but also in the hospital. Very important to me are individual care, disease prevention as well as sufficient time for conversation.

Since May 1998 happily married to my wife Raphaela, elementary school teacher and medical masseuse. We have two daughters: Lara, born 2004 and Emily, born 2006. To keep myself fit I do a lot of sports (running, mountain biking, mountaineering, snowboarding,...). I like to spend my free time with family and friends. My job is both, my calling and my hobby.
