I’m an International Medical Graduate. As a General Practitioner/Physician, I possess a strong work ethic and enjoy problem solving, often working under pressure and dealing with large caseloads. Leveraging my passion and extensive knowledge in healthcare, I have spent over 3 years working to significantly improve upon patient health perception and adherence to their treatments, resulting in a better quality of life and greater life expectancy. Having a strong interest in patient recovery, I have sought specialization in Physical Rehabilitation to ensure patients with neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury, stroke, or cerebral palsy etc. can still have hope for a new life and continue to participate in society, despite their disability. For this purpose, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of patients - post surgical, geriatric, pediatric, amputees, and patients with muscular dystrophy, neurological diseases, chronic diseases, and those with, severe and chronic pain. I am adept at working unsupervised and quickly mastering new skills, and I leverage efficient interpersonal skills, my proficiency in Spanish and competency in English to communicate effectively with both colleagues, patients and clients no matter how fast-paced the work environment is. I really enjoy working with elderly patients because it gives me the opportunity to contribute to their healthy aging and you can always learn something from their experience.

I’m an International Medical Graduate, I have worked for more than 2 years in an Institute that specializes in rehabilitation and physical therapy,, where I had an approach with older adults who I had to help mobilize, post-operative care, people with disabilities and neurological disorders. I have ample experience in the use of mobility devices for elderly people such as wheelchair chairs, crutches, walkers, etc. As well I know many anti-delirium strategies and familiarity with all types of prosthetic devices. I really enjoy working with elderly patients because it gives me the opportunity to contribute to their healthy aging and you can always learn something from their experience in life.

I’m an International medical doctor, I have my Educational Credential Assessment which has been assessed to be equivalent to a Doctor of Medicine by the Medical Council of Canada
