I am general psychiatry resident doctor in Estonia. So far I have completed almost all my residency cycles and I am due to graduate in december 2024.
I have gained relevant experience in both adult and children psychiatric and neurologic specialties. In near future I am planning to start working with patients in-patient care for eating-disorders in Tartu University Hospital general psychiatry ward and continue providing out-patient care for patients with eating disorders.
I have provided out-patient care for patients with eating disorders with mental health nurses, psychologists, psychotherapists and other specialists. I have also made presentations with them to help people understand eating disorders better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8H5C73sYrQ
