About me
Dr. Nika Skoro-Sajer is a specialist in internal medicine and cardiology, as well as an interventional cardiologist with many years of experience at the Medical University of Vienna. Her focus is on modern catheter-based treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
A particular focus of her clinical work is on coronary interventions, i.e., minimally invasive procedures for the treatment of narrowing of the coronary arteries.
During this procedure, narrowed or blocked coronary arteries are precisely visualized using a cardiac catheter and treated with modern techniques such as balloon angioplasty and stent implantation. These minimally invasive interventions improve blood flow to the heart muscle, alleviate symptoms such as angina pectoris, and help prevent heart attacks.
In addition to coronary intervention, Dr. Skoro-Sajer has particular expertise in diseases of the pulmonary circulation, especially pulmonary hypertension. In this area, she is involved in both clinical and scientific research on innovative treatment methods.
She studied medicine at the Universities of Zagreb and Vienna and received her doctorate from the Medical University of Vienna in 1998. Since 2002, she has worked at the Department of Internal Medicine at the Medical University of Vienna and is a member of the interdisciplinary Pulmonary Vascular Center. She completed her habilitation in internal medicine in 2010. She also holds an MBA in health management.
Dr. Skoro-Sajer combines many years of university experience with modern, patient-centered medicine. Her aim is to provide patients with the highest level of medical care and to explain complex diagnostic and therapeutic options to them in an understandable way.
A holistic approach is particularly important to me. I take the time for comprehensive diagnostics and personal consultations to find the best possible path forward together. Trust, empathy, and medical quality are central to my work.
