Profile
I was born in 1979 and raised in Limassol. After fulfilling my military service, I studied Medicine at the Medical School of the University of Athens in Greece from where I graduated in 2005. Right after, I moved to Sweden where I worked for 11 years at the University Hospital of Linköping. I acquired the specialties of Internal Medicine and Cardiology and I was trained in Interventional Cardiology. I gained extensive experience in interventional treatment of coronary artery disease working in a high-volume catheterization lab. I had the responsibility of the local program for angioplasty of chronic total occlusions (CTO-PCI) using both antegrade and retrograde techniques and I am highly skilled in treating extremely calcified lesions with rotational atherectomy (Rotablation). In clinical practice, I predominantly use the radial access for my procedures and I have deep knowledge of endovascular imaging methods such as optical coherent tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) as well as of methods of functional study of the coronary vessels such as FFR and iFR. I acquired proficiency in transthoracic echocardiography and executed a considerable number of transesophageal echocardiograms. Recently, I participated as an assistant in a large series of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) procedures at Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen where I gained experience of the method.
