Education

I studied Veterinary Medicine at the University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine in Bucharest (Romania)  and graduated in 2011.

During my studies, I spent one year as an Erasmus exchange student at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Bologna, Italy.

After completing my studies, I worked for several years in private practices in Romania and Austria, where I focused mainly on surgery, anesthesia, diagnostic imaging, and emergency medicine.

In 2016, I enrolled in a residency in radiology with the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging (ECVDI) at the University of Zurich, Switzerland. I passed the board examination and became a Diplomate of the  European College of Veterinary Diagnostic in 2023, the first Diplomate of the college from Romania.


Currently, I am collaborating with various universities, private practices and teleradiology companies in Switzerland, Romania, the USA and other countries.

As an active member of several renowned veterinary associations, I stay up to date with the latest advances in diagnostic imaging and general veterinary medicine.
