About Me

I lived 40 years in Brussels and when young practiced a lot of sports . My first passion when 18 years old was alternative music.
I became an orthopaedic surgeon and met my wife Alexandra while studying medecine.
She's a paediatrician and an extraordinary women.
Together we shared the passion of going out and travelling as much as possible
Our values have always been the love of human being, honesty, generosity, compassion, to share other cultures , to take care of people.
My two older children are 35 and 33 and live in Geneva and Brussels. Sacha, 24 years old is studying Ophtalmology in Brussels. Our younger child, Loïc is 16 years old and likes music, video and plays a lot of tennis and football.
After working hard as doctors in Rwanda during 4 years we moved in France in 2008 and finally in Lyon in 2010.
