"The ritual of human contact is cathartic to the physician and necessary to the patient. Let us not forget that the ritual has meaning and has a singular message to convey to the patient. And that message is: I will always, always, always be there for you. I will never abandon you. I will see you through this. I will be with you through the end." -Abraham Verghese

I'm a physician specializing in interventional spine and musculoskeletal medicine as well as physical medicine and rehabilitation.

I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic, where my early passion for health and wellness first took shape. That foundation continues to guide my approach today as I work to support patients on their individual paths to healing and improved function. My goal is to empower each patient to live a healthier, more functional and more fulfilling life through personalized, evidence-based care.

Philosophy of Care
I believe in treating every patient as I would treat someone I love. Taking time to understand each person's unique condition allows me to tailor care that supports their physical health, emotional well-being and long-term goals.

Favorite Parts of Medicine
  • Making a meaningful impact on patients' mobility, comfort and overall quality of life
  • Helping individuals become healthier and more functional through tailored treatment plans
  • Contributing positively to the world through compassionate, patient-centered care
  • Continuously learning and staying current with advances in medicine to provide the highest standard of care

Hobbies
Outside of medicine, I enjoy practicing martial arts-currently Brazilian jiu-jitsu, kickboxing and wrestling. I also love surfing, free-diving, soapstone carving and traveling to explore new cultures and experiences.
