About

Henrik Nistrup, MD is Medical Director at Aetas Diagnostics and the Danish-registered responsible physician for the Hellerup practice. He has held Danish medical authorization since 1982 and independent-practice permission since 1984. Before Aetas, he spent decades in pharmaceutical and life-sciences leadership, including roles at Novo Nordisk, AstraZeneca across several regions, and Agilent Technologies. At Aetas, he leads clinical interpretation across suPAR inflammation scoring, blood biomarkers, clinical genetics, hormones, and prevention planning.

What to Know

Signature approach

Nistrup reads Aetas results as a layered prevention profile: suPAR for chronic inflammation, cardiometabolic markers for metabolic load, hormone markers for endocrine status, and genetics for inherited risk. The goal is to act on drift in repeat panels before inflammation, glucose handling, hormones, or other risk signals become a clinical event.

What sets them apart

  • Long Danish medical registry history. He has held medical authorization since 1982 and independent-practice permission since 1984.
  • Life-sciences leadership. Novo Nordisk, AstraZeneca, and Agilent roles give him diagnostic-platform experience beyond a conventional clinic career.
  • Responsible physician role. He carries the regulatory physician accountability for Aetas's specialist practice.

Before You Book

  • Physician assignment. Nistrup leads clinical interpretation, but Aetas lists several registered physicians. Confirm who will handle your consult.
  • Health Concierge. If you want Nistrup specifically as a senior physician contact, ask whether that is available in the concierge tier.
  • Care setting. Clinical work is tied to the Hellerup clinic and Aetas's in-house lab model.
