About me
A gynaecologist who truly listens
"Every woman deserves to be heard and taken seriously, especially when she talks about her pain."
I graduated in Medicine and Surgery from Vita-Salute San Raffaele University in Milan and completed my specialisation in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Verona. I continued my training at national and international centres, earning an international master's degree in level II gynaecological ultrasound focused on endometriosis.
I currently work as a Consultant in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Unit of Ospedali Riuniti Padova Sud (ULSS 6 Euganea), in both clinical and surgical practice, with a particular focus on endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
My approach is built on empathy, listening and personalised care: from prevention and contraception to pregnancy and menopause, we will find the right path for you together.

Endometriosis & pelvic pain
Severe period pain is not normal
Endometriosis affects around one in ten women of reproductive age, yet it is often recognised only after years. A dedicated consultation and an ultrasound performed by an experienced specialist can lead to an earlier diagnosis.
Vulvodynia deserves attention too
Burning, pain or discomfort in the vulvar area lasting for months, often during intercourse or even when sitting, should not be ignored: it can be diagnosed and treated.

FAQ
Any questions?
How do I book an appointment?
Appointments are booked directly with the clinic of your choice (Vicenza, Monselice, Este or Rosà), online via the clinic's website or by phone. You will find all the details under Locations.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. Consultations at these clinics are private and do not require a referral. Fees are provided by the clinic when you book.
What should I bring to my first visit?
Please bring previous consultation and scan reports, any blood tests, your latest smear or HPV test result and a list of any medication you take. It also helps to note the date of your last period and any symptoms.
Can I have a consultation during my period?
For a consultation and ultrasound, usually yes. A smear test is best done away from your period. If in doubt, ask the clinic when booking.
What is a level II gynaecological ultrasound?
It is an in-depth transvaginal ultrasound performed by a gynaecologist with specific training, following international protocols. It is particularly useful to detect and map endometriosis and adenomyosis and to plan any treatment or surgery.
I have very painful periods: could it be endometriosis?
Period pain that limits your daily activities or is not relieved by common painkillers always deserves an assessment. It may be caused by endometriosis or by other conditions: a dedicated consultation helps clarify this.
What is vulvodynia?
It is vulvar pain or burning lasting at least three months without an obvious cause such as an infection. It is a real and common condition that can be diagnosed and treated with a personalised plan.
