Oral and maxillofacial surgery resident
As a doctor, I consider communication with the patient very important. I always strive to explain the patient's diagnosis and treatment in as much detail as possible. Good cooperation with the patient always leads to the best treatment outcome. From the perspective of oral and maxillofacial surgery, the most engaging cases for me are those that present challenges and where we can improve a person's quality of life. I chose this specialty because of its versatility, offering the opportunity to treat patients in outpatient clinics, during hospital stays, and in the operating room.
At Meliva, I mainly focus on wisdom tooth extractions, specifically osteotomies. My clinic also welcomes children for tongue and/or lip-tie surgeries.
