Bilingual Doctor in Medellin

I am a Bilingual General Practitioner, born and raised in Medellin, Colombia. I studied Medicine at Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, the 2nd oldest Medical School in Medellin.

I completed my Internship at the University of Texas at San Antonio and practiced in both the UTSA Hospital and the VA Hospital At San Antonio, Texas. I returned to Colombia to work for the Colombian National Insurance, Coomeva EPS for 7 years.

I improved my skills in Family Practice and worked at ERs and Outpatient Services, treating both acute and chronic conditions, and all kind of trauma injuries, prenatal care and Coomeva´s growth and development children´s program.

Graduated from Occupational Health at Universidad CES, I worked with Insurance companies and Occupational Health Clinics, following up on cases of work-related accidents and diseases.

My desire to have a deeper connection with my patients outside the Colombian Heath system limitations and my Fluent English turned my career direction, and I started working with the Expat community in Medellin and also foreigners visiting the city.

I firmly believe that the foundation of a good doctor-patient relationship is trust; listening to all patients concerns, learning about the patient’s background, believes and emotional support circle, and explaining in detail the origin of his condition is the first step to overcome any health challenge.
