Dr. Valérie Decrouy-Duruz
Dr. Decrouy-Duruz is an FMH specialist in Hand Surgery.
After completing her surgical training in Lausanne, Sierre, Basel and Geneva, Dr. Decrouy-Duruz obtained the diploma of the European Board of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery in 2013 and then the diploma of the European Board of Hand Surgery in 2017.
She then confirmed her long-held desire to devote herself to hand surgery, driven by both the beauty of this organ and its functional importance. In 2017, she took over Dr. Piaget's practice at the Longeraie Center and devoted herself to treating all wrist and hand pathologies. Trained in new techniques, particularly in prosthetic surgery and 3D ostetomies, Dr. Decrouy-Duruz treats a wide variety of hand and forearm pathologies.
Dr. Decrouy-Duruz attaches great importance to intelligent and stimulating collaboration between healthcare partners because it promotes the effectiveness of patient care and builds patient confidence.
