Dr Denef
As a trilingual general practitioner — French, English and Dutch — I graduated from KU Leuven in 1997. I worked for 15 years as a general practitioner, including 10 years in Geneva. Following a rapid deterioration in the health of one of my children — I explain everything in detail in my video “My story” — I developed a particular interest in complementary treatments and alternatives to conventional medicine. I therefore completed various training courses that helped me broaden my knowledge and now practise with an integrative view of health, where complementary treatments go hand in hand with conventional medicine.

My Medical Center O'Vive
At our Integrative Medicine Center OVIVE, we combine conventional medicine with alternative approaches to address the biological, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of health. Using various treatments and therapies, we focus on healing the whole person rather than merely alleviating the symptoms of the illness. Our goal is to help our patients gain vitality, improve their mental well-being, understand and enhance their sleep, digestion, and metabolism, increase their resistance to stress, and provide them with nutritional and sports coaching. Our programs are tailored for both adults and children.
