General Info

About me

My childhood was marked by the torment of chronic diseases that were overcome only with the help and love of my family, especially my parents. Besides my family, something I will never forget is the care and dedication of the doctors who treated me selflessly for many years. I decided to become a doctor through a great effort and despite not having own economic resources and with state assistance. What I enjoy most about my practice is to finish my work each day with the assurance of having done my best to return the smile to those patients who have lost it and help keep it for ones that conserve it.
