Pulmonology

He graduated in Medicine and Surgery from the Università di Padova, where he also obtained two specialisations: Medical Oncology in 1983, and Phthisiology and Respiratory Diseases in 1989.

He worked at the Ospedale di San Vito al Tagliamento from 1978 to 2017, as a first-level senior physician for more than 25 years. In the Medical ward he devoted himself to Pulmonology, completing the relevant specialisation course and attending courses, conferences and specialist division services.

His independent clinical work included specialist consultations, performing and reporting spirometry tests, bronchial endoscopy (first-level fibre-optic bronchoscopy), and prescription and follow-up of home oxygen therapy for both inpatients and outpatients.

In addition to his specialist work, he carried out the regular activity of the Medical ward and independently performed the relevant diagnostic and therapeutic procedures (thoracentesis, paracentesis, bone biopsies and bone marrow aspirates, etc.).

He taught extensively at the nursing school in Social Medicine, General Pathology, Geriatrics and Medical Pathology, and contributed to scientific publications and to presentations at various congresses on internal medicine conditions.

In private practice since 2017, he set up the Pulmonology clinic at POLISMedica in San Vito al Tagliamento.
