My name is Mark Juhasz M.D., Ph.D. I am specialized in Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology. I graduated at Semmelweis University, Budapest. Ever since my main affiliation is the 2nd Department of Internal Medicine at Semmelweis University, this is also where I defended my PhD Thesis in 2004 on gastric and pancreatic carcinogenesis. I am the member of the Board of the Hungarian Gastroenterology Society, and I am the co-founder of the Society for Young Hungarian Gastroenterologists. I have been running my private practice since 2004.

Coeliac disease (also called sprue, or gluten sensitive enteropathy)

One of my main field of interests is coeliac disease. I care for couple of hundreds of people with coeliac disease by setting up the diagnosis and then performing the follow-up, and family screening.

Having the 2nd Department of Internal Medicine at Semmelweis University in the background of my private practice as a distinctive centre for IBD, the novel treatment option for IBD, biologics, are also available.
