General Info

About me

Dr. Andrea Guevara has been a physician for 21 years and has practiced urology for 19 years. He specialized in Urology 15 years ago at the University of Costa Rica. Later, she was admitted in Paris, France at the Pierre et Marie Curie University through the Henri Mondor Hospital, completing an In-Depth Postgraduate Degree in Urology with an Emphasis in Oncological Urology and Advanced Surgical Techniques including Robotic Surgery in 2009 and also a Diploma in Urodynamics Female and Functional Urology. He has published in the American Journal of Urology on Bladder Cancer. She worked for 10 years at the San Juan de Dios Hospital, and was the first female urologist to be admitted as an assistant physician in a class A Adult Hospital in Costa Rica and is the third urologist to graduate in Costa Rica. Currently, he only practices private medicine at the CIMA San José Hospital and at the Momentum Pinares Medical Tower. His emphasis is on prostate and bladder diseases, andrology, female and functional urology, as well as the comprehensive management of the male patient, accompanying him as his doctor in his different stages of life (erectile dysfunction, infertility, prostate control, testicular, male health general). In addition, he frequently attends courses and congresses on medical updating and participates as an international and national lecturer. But the most important thing is that she distributes her time among her patients, her family, her studies, sports and a very healthy life, representing the modern, professional and pioneer woman in opening a field that was forbidden for many decades to female doctors.
