Sleep apnea, internal & pulmonary medicine expert

SINCE September 2001, Dr Gabriel Grabowski has successfully operated a practice for internal and pulmonary medicine in Nuremberg and, in May 2022, he opened a second office as a lung specialist in cooperation with internist Dr Lorenzo da Silva in La Cala de Mijas.

In internal medicine, the focus of the practice is general preventive health care, which centres around avoiding the de­ velopment of diseases or detecting them at an early, easier treatable stage.
