Between 1826 and 1832, he studied medicine at the University of Vienna, and after obtaining his doctorate, he settled in Pest.

It was then that he met Imre Klauzál (1799–1847), the distinguished agronomist who was the administrator of the Károlyi estate in Tótmegyer and later, on his recommendation, became the estate doctor there. He often wrote articles on medical topics for Kossuth's newspaper, Pesti Hírlap, and Orvosi Tár.
