Meet The Team

I have been a midwife since 2002 working internationally and now settled in my homeland of Denmark, whilst working clinically in 2015 when I saw the need for a device which aids clinicians whilst suturing all degrees of perineal trauma, this is when the Hegenberger retractor idea was born.

The journey has been an exciting one and it has been truly inspirational to see the Hegenberger Retractor being used by so many women in all corners of the world, I am excited to continue the journey and help as many women as possible achieve a better port-partum outcome.
