Dr Silja Kullamaa

Neurologist


Working languages: Estonian, Russian, German

I graduated from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Tartu with a specialization in neurology and have been working as a neurologist at the North Estonia Medical Centre since 1994. I treat a wide range of neurological conditions, including back pain. I see patients from the age of 7. As a physician, I consider a trusting, calm, and open dialogue with patients essential in order to find appropriate solutions to their health concerns.
