Dr Epp Simmo
Dr Epp Simmo is a general practitioner who specialises in dealing with people’s health problems in a holistic manner.
In addition to her expertise in general medicine, Dr Simmo is used to collaborating with specialists from various medical fields and representatives of the social field. This has given her an excellent opportunity to update her knowledge and broaden her professional horizon. Her work is based on open, positive communication and staying updated with the latest developments in the field.
Dr Epp Simmo is also very interested in the breakthroughs in the treatment of obesity, which in recent years have been weight loss drugs.
Her work in various Finnish clinics has given her over 10 years of professional experience. She joined the Health Clinic’s Weight Loss Clinic team in 2023. International training and specialised education are an essential part of her work; without these, it would not be possible to provide safe, up-to-date and optimal care to patients today.
