Our Team
Stavros Toumpoulis, DDS
Founder & President
Stavros is CEO and founder of 2bullMeDiTherapy, which was founded in 2016 with the purpose of offering a wide range of effective diagnostic and therapeutic solutions. Through modern research, technology and the discovery of innovative biological mechanisms we target the creation of new diagnostic blood tests which can detect diseases at an early stage when they are easier to be cured.
Also, our goal is to create diagnostic tests that can predict possible complications which may arise after thoracic surgery.
