Dr. Giulia Virginia Vottero
About me

I graduated from university in Turin in 2006 and moved to Switzerland in 2007 for my training in surgery. After four years in Switzerland, I won the competition for the second-level Master (Specialisation) in Plastic Surgery in Liège, Belgium, where I lived for five years. During my specialisation, I worked in Milan for a year at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO), learning more about breast reconstruction techniques.
I completed my university training with a Doctorate in Medical Sciences (PhD) at the University of Liège.
Since 2019, I have been working as an independent plastic surgeon in Sierre and Fribourg, where I collaborate with two dermatology practices and am accredited at the Clinique Générale. Since 2023 I have also been accredited at two hospitals in the canton of Valais: the Clinique de Valère in Sion and the Clinique CIC in Saxon.
Continuing education is fundamental to my work, which is why I constantly take part in courses and specialist meetings at international level.
