After a short detour in Miskolc, he became a neurologist between 1963 and 1978 and then a psychiatrist at the Neurology and Mental Clinic of the Medical University of Pécs under the supervision of Professor Környey. For most of his career, from 1978 to 2007, he worked in the psychiatric department of the National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Budapest. He spent twenty years of his more than 45-year teaching career as a professor at Semmelweis University, where he habilitated in 1995. He was the chief physician of the National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology (OPNI, Lipótmező) between 1908 and 2007, until the closure of the institute. He led a class of one hundred and forty people. :In 1997, he became a Doctor of theForeign research and recognition

His specialties were: sleep disorder, panic disorder, phobia, depression, manic depression, anxiety disorders, sleep disorder, alcohol and individual life problems, relationship disorders, crisis situations, integration problems, obsessive-compulsive disorder, mood disorders, schizophrenia, menstrual disorders. For example, phobias and related anxiety disorders are the most common forms of mental illness, occurring in 20 to 40 percent of the population. 2.5-3 percent of the domestic population may suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder. Schizophrenia occurs in 0.7-1% of the Hungarian population. These diseases can now be cured, more precisely, asymptomatic can be ensured if the patient cooperates with the doctor. In 2002, Péter Gaszner, on the healing effectiveness of psychiatry, said: “It is no coincidence that I was talking about asymptomatic and not healing. We can cure a disease for which we know for sure. Psychiatric treatments are not comparable to the effectiveness of treatments used in physical medicine. People's mental difficulties cannot be solved with chemicals. Drugs administered in psychiatry only serve to chemically suppress unpleasant mental manifestations, but this does not help the person to overcome their mental difficulty in the long run. It's no coincidence that when medicated patients stop taking the drug, they “relapse”: their symptoms recur, which psychiatrists usually say, “they haven't taken their medication long enough,” but in reality, these drugs don't restore the drug. mental health and only suppress the symptoms for as long as they are taken.” Péter Gaszner was the president of the Hungarian Society of Psychopharmacology, as he specialized in psychopharmacology, as the pharmacological treatment of nerve and mental illnesses has significantly transformed therapy since the 1950s. Chlorpromazine was first discovered. From the 1970s, when selective compounds appeared, development accelerated even more. Péter Gaszner successfully used traditional psychotherapy in combination with medication. His research in this area was published, inter alia, in 1989, entitled “Pharmacological Treatment of Mental Illnesses”. He summarized it in his 139-page book.Selected works
