Summary

  • I am a Resident physician in Anesthesiology, currently doing my training. I am IMG, former Anesthesiology in Venezuela. Moved to the US and completed my USMLE board exams. I completed 1 year of training in IM in the US, recently transition to Anesthesiology program. My training in Venezuela was 1 year of IM preliminary and three years of Anesthesiology. I am very interested in interventional pain and focusing my attention on this fellowship moving forward. I truly love my job and feel pretty confident managing patients in the anesthesia ER, ICU, IM, and perioperative environment. I worked in very large hospitals in my country and learned a lot about trauma anesthesia. Also very passionate about conducting research, I had the opportunity to participate in the Research program at Cleveland Clinic Florida.
