The basic principle of his medical work is the partnership-based decision-making together with my patients for the best medical care, based on the latest scientific findings. As a gynaeco-oncologist, breast cancer specialist and President of the Austrian Cancer Aid, the early detection of cancer is particularly important to me. But we cannot always detect cancer early. Then it is important to place the treatment planning in the hands of a specialist. For more than 30 years, the diagnosis, surgical and drug therapy as well as the aftercare of breast cancer and cancer in women has been the focus of my daily clinical work.
