Philosophy of care

I want to provide excellent healthcare services all the time, supported by strong academic backgrounds, top updated clinical programs tailored to most of your needs, with a personalized and trustable relationship.

I decided to go into the medical field inspired by my father's guidance and example, as well as by my constant desire to help patients with complex medical conditions. With time, I developed interest and passion for Preventive Medicine, Cardiometabolic Medicine and Nephrology among other areas.

My practice goals are reaching a diverse population, with special interest in the Hispanic population due to my ethnic background. Minorities and the underserved population are always of special interest to me as well as patients with complex conditions.

Quality individualized and compassionate care have always been my priority.

Among my interests are traveling, cooking, and swimming. dancing, gardening and spending time with my Family and friends.
