Indira Toirac, APRN

As a nurse practitioner at Sanitas, I deliver quality care, integrating medical knowledge, professional ethics and respect for my patients, who are treated like family. Being bilingual is a big help in communicating with my patients who are only comfortable speaking Spanish, my first language. I'm also fluent in English.

I was born in Cuba and came to the United States when I was 15 years old. I believe everyone is born with a calling in life—a vocation. For me it was the human aspect of medicine and understanding the mystery of the human body. I was very blessed to know what I was called to do when I was a child, which has given my life meaning, purpose and joy.

When I take off my coat, I enjoy quality time with my family and appreciate every moment we have together. While it’s true that helping my patients is my calling in life, motherhood is my greatest achievement. I love being a mom to my precious daughter. There's rarely a dull moment and we share lots of hugs, giggles and dancing.
