Medical and Nursing Services

We provide preventative medicine and more for the elderly who are burdened by the normal process of aging and the psychological effects that accumulate over the years. We support the treatment and prevention of the various medical problems which, inevitably, appear over time and as part of the normal aging process.

After the age of 65, "degeneration" increases daily and illnesses due to the burdens of everyday life, infections and neoplastic diseases take their toll on our loved ones. We put our many years of experience to good use, and we aim to mitigate these unpleasant developments in the best possible way.
