MUDr. Mária Andelová, MPH, MHA

A doctor taking a break from work on maternity leave with her son. In 2009 I graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Pavol Jozef Šafárik in Košice, General Medicine. In 2015 I supplemented the M.D. degree with an attestation in gastroenterology and then in the same year with the MPH (mother of public health) and MHA (master of health administration) degrees. Since graduating from the Faculty of Medicine, I have been working at the IV Internal Medicine Clinic of the UNLP in Košice, and since 2015 also at the endoscopic department of the II Surgical Clinic of the UNLP as a senior gastroenterologist. In 2012, I started working as an emergency physician in the Košice Ambulance Service. Why me? I have daily experience in examining gastroenterology patients and experience in extensive internal medicine. I always brush up on my knowledge of other disciplines in the ambulance service. There is a lot of work, but there has to be psychohygiene, and I do that in the fitness centre, in the mountains or running in the city or the forest, but currently the time spent with my family dominates, of course.
