Dr. Marietta Wiedl

General practitioner, specialist in internal medicine
About me

 

After obtaining my medical degree at the MED University of Vienna, I underwent 3 years of training as a specialist in internal medicine in Switzerland. Feeling homesick for Austria, I moved to Tirol in 2011 and completed my internal medicine training at the St. Johann District Hospital in 2014.

Following training in general medicine at the St. Johann and Kufstein District Hospitals, I took on the position of head of the diabetes clinic in 2016, in conjunction with a team of assistant doctors and a diabetes consultant. In 2018 I completed the general medicine training and continued my career as surgery ward physician as well as part time specialist for internal medicine.

In 2021 I had the opportunity to relieve Dr. Mitteregger from his practice in Kitzbühel and eventually take over his NHS general practitioner position, after applying to the medical association of Tirol. I am now especially pleased to be part of the practice of my long-time colleague Dr. Simon Gasteiger and, together with Dr.Bernhard Harderer, pool our areas of expertise for the benefit of our patients.
