I graduated High School “Geo Milev” in 1991. After that I studied medicine for 6 years at the Thracian University of Stara Zagora and then specialized in Obstetrics and Gynecology for another 5 years, until 2004.

In the meantime, I worked in small municipal hospitals and conducted preventive examinations of enterprises at occupational medicine services. I worked for a while as a sanitarian in the United States. I have worked in a private practice in the specialty Obstetrics and Gynecology, while at the same time I have been engaged in clinical trials of different medicaments in Sofia. I was a manager and part of the team in one of the private hospitals in Sliven. I participated in the start-up of NIAMED Hospital and I was medical manager of the clinic. I have also practiced for about a year in the city of Burgas.

Since 2010 I have opened my private practice and I work in the „St. Ivan Rilski“ Hospital, currently under the name Hospital „Trakia“ – Center in Stara Zagora.

My professional interests are:

• endoscopic surgery – laparoscopy and hysteroscopy
• maternal and fetal medicine

I specialized in major European centers of endoscopic surgery, maternal and fetal medicine IRCAD, Strasbourg-France, London, Vienna, FMF. I strive for what I am offering in my practice to be similar in all quality standards to what is offered in any other place in the world. I am aware of the fact that I have to work constantly to develop, achieve and maintain all that. I constantly invest efforts and resources in the implementation of new medical methods and technologies. I am happy that at this stage, our successes together are much more than the failures, and that is exactly what gives me the strength to continue working and developing.
