About
«Ser médico es la mejor oportunidad para ayudar a los demás. Como cirujano, puedo tener un impacto positivo inmediato en la atención de los pacientes, y creo en hacer solo lo que es importante y necesario para lograr ese objetivo».
Soy urólogo en University Health, donde me enfoco en brindar una atención eficiente y de alta calidad que mejore la vida de los pacientes.
Lo que me inspiró a dedicarme a la medicina fue la oportunidad de marcar una diferencia real y duradera en la salud de las personas. Ya sea a través de una atención a largo plazo o de un procedimiento único, creo en hacer lo necesario —y solo lo necesario— para lograr el mejor resultado posible.
Filosofía de atención
Creo en adaptar la atención a cada persona, utilizando las técnicas más efectivas y minimizando al mismo tiempo las intervenciones innecesarias.
Lo que más me gusta de la medicina
Establecer relaciones a largo plazo con mis pacientes
Mejorar la calidad de vida mediante la atención médica y quirúrgica
Intereses clínicos
Tengo un gran interés clínico en la RTUP (resección transuretral de la próstata). Aunque muchos urólogos ingresan a pacientes de manera rutinaria y recurren a la irrigación vesical continua, en los últimos seis años solo he tenido uno o dos casos aislados que hayan requerido este enfoque.
También me especializo en ureteroscopia y litotricia con láser, con un enfoque en minimizar la exposición a la radiación.
Aficiones
En mi tiempo libre, me gusta viajar, hacer senderismo y leer.
Premios y reconocimientos
