About me

Being a doctor was my dream since childhood, perhaps I was influenced by the desire to follow the footsteps of my father and after seeing his commitment towards patients, it motivated me to follow this path. I can tell you with complete sincerity that I was not wrong; the feeling that is generated when you help others is unparalleled. It's really rewarding to see the children that have had surgical procedures living well, attending classes and learning, besides seeing the parents smile.
