What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my expertise in aesthetic medicine while contributing to community health initiatives and continuous learning.

I am a licensed physician from Venezuela with over 6 years of clinical experience, including 4 years as the First Medispa Physician onboard Virgin Voyages' cruise ships. My expertise lies in aesthetic medicine, specializing in facial rejuvenation treatments, skin tightening, and IV hydration therapy. I take pride in being a top-grossing Medispa Physician onboard Britain's prestigious P&O Cruise Line, where my passion and knowledge reflect in everything I do.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong leadership and organizational skills, notably as the head of the medical delegation for the Venezuelan Red Cross, where I organized medical drives and COVID-19 awareness campaigns. My experience also includes serving as an on-call physician in the ICU during the COVID-19 pandemic, where I excelled in high-pressure environments. I am committed to continuous self-improvement and embody empathy and responsibility in my practice.
