Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty that is used both to improve a person’s appearance or to reconstruct defects in facial and body tissues caused by disease, accident, or birth disorders.
I always wanted to be a doctor, that was my dream since I was a child. I chose this profession out of vocation, conviction, and passion for life and health. That is why I decided to train as a doctor at the Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla, Colombia.
In my need of wanting to help others and to expand my knowledge in medicine, I did a specialization in General Surgery at the Santa Casa de la Misericordia Hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Then I continued my specialization studies in Aesthetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at the São Rafael Monte Tabor Hospital in Salvador Bahia, Brazil.
My training as a doctor is a job that will always be constantly updated to find the best procedures for my patients and thus allowing me to continue transforming lives with the best quality results, ethics, and professionalism.
