Dr Kadri Palo

Gynecologist


Languages: Estonian, English, Russian, Finnish and French

I have been working as a gynecologist since 1991. I enjoy the diversity of this specialty – I can perform surgical work or patient consultations, as well as use different diagnostic methods in my work. When I work at the hospital, I also consult and work with pregnant women, women in labor and gynecological patients. I always try to find the best solution for the patient and I’m not ashamed to ask advice or help from colleagues whom in return I will always help out. It might be that for this reason I was awarded the title of the best doctor in East-Tallinn Central Hospital and also the title of Tallinn Health Worker in 2009.

Personal

In my free time, I love spending time with my family and good friends. I enjoy travelling and discovering new places. I have raised three sons with my husband and as a family, we undertake various interesting trips. I love to read and I’m a big fan of dogs. We have two long-haired collies, whose adventures I could share and talk about endlessly.
