Professor De Angelis is an expert in nutrition and physiology. His approach consists of a series of easy-to-follow rules and concepts that revolve around a fundamental principle: for millions of years, food has been a form of communication between the environment and man, according to which the organism has self-regulated, modifying its body composition, its metabolism, the amount of accumulated fat.

By relying on the De Angelis method, we will finally be able to eat well, that is, to nourish ourselves by following the simple but effective rules dictated by human physiology, which concern the composition of meals, their quantity and, above all, their daily rhythm.

Dr. Natthakritta Pruksapanrat

As a child, the career I wanted the most was to become a doctor because I wanted to help others, give back to the society, and provide something good to my fellow humans. When I grew up, I became a doctor as I had always dream of. 

During my time as a medical student, I developed a strong passion for performing procedures because I enjoyed it and I was good at it. After graduating, I had the opportunity to further my studies in surgery due to my interest in performing various procedures and my personal traits of caring for everyone, treating them fairly, and focusing on achieving the best outcomes for my patients. I listen to what my clients want, analyze their structure, and perform procedures that best meet their needs. 

This led me to open this clinic with the intention of ensuring that those who undergo surgery are “satisfied” and leave with “a smile and renewed confidence.”
