Overview
I am an infectious diseases physician with interests in antimicrobial stewardship (oral therapies, shorter durations of treatment, diagnostics stewardship), bloodstream infections and care of immunocompromised patients. After completing ID training, I have worked in a tertiary hospital focusing on ID consultancy, antimicrobial stewardship programs (in the vascular surgery department and as a member of a bloodstream infections program) and outpatient clinics (tuberculosis, HIV, PrEP and outpatient oral antimicrobial therapy).
