Summary

  • After attending medical school in Puerto Rico, I completed general surgery residency at Texas Tech. Following residency, I finished a yearlong colon and rectal surgical fellowship specialized in minimally invasive surgical techniques. In July 2025, I will obtain my second fellowship in colon and rectal surgery from Mayo Clinic Arizona. My interests include surgical management of inflammatory bowel disease, diverticular disease, anorectal disorders, and cancers of the colon, rectum, and anus.
