I am a senior cardiac surgeon (Oberärztin) at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Robert Bosch Hospital in Stuttgart. I completed my medical studies at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy “Carol Davila” in Bucharest and earned my doctorate at the University of Tübingen in 2021 with a dissertation on coronary reoperations, awarded magna cum laude. Since 2018, I am board-certified in cardiac surgery and hold an additional qualification in intensive care medicine. My clinical and scientific interests include coronary bypass surgery, minimally invasive techniques, off-pump procedures, the use of miniaturized extracorporeal circulation, and surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation. I am currently focusing on expanding minimally invasive cardiac surgery and developing future applications in robotic cardiac surgery. I have been a fellow of the German Society for Thoracic, Cardiac and Vascular Surgery and the European Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery since 2020, and I am committed to advancing innovative, patient-centered surgical care.
