I was born in Camaguey, Cuba. When I became an adult, I decided to come to the US. It is helpful that I am fluent in Spanish and English. My passion to help people is why I became a doctor. My family is asthmatic, and we were frequently at the hospital when I was growing up. I realized that if I studied medicine, I could help my family and others. A great day at work is when we meet all of our patients’ expectations. It requires compassion and collaboration to provide the best care possible! I belong to the old school of medicine that says you must have a full understanding of a patient’s complaints to get the root of the problem. One of my favorite things about working here is the long-term connections and trust built with patients, regardless of gender, age, or the nature of their complaints. At Sanitas, we treat everyone equally and individually. This helps us create an effective care plan and develop a trusting relationship with patients, working toward the goal of getting them better together. When I’m not working, I like to spend time with my wife and two children. We like to go biking, boating, and dancing.
