Her areas of expertise include the diagnosis and management of both acute and chronic conditions including diseases of the respiratory system, digestive system abnormalities, thyroid conditions, weight management, anemia and vitamin deficiencies, cardiovascular diseases as well as mental health concerns and men's and women's health conditions.

Dr. Friederike´s services include health check-ups, preventive care, lifestyle counselling, vaccinations, travel medicine, wound care, cancer and STD screening.

 

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
