What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to provide compassionate patient care while continuing to grow professionally in a supportive environment.

I am a General Practitioner with over 4 years of international experience in primary care. My journey has taken me from Honduras to the United States, where I have honed my skills in delivering high-quality, patient-centered care. I am dedicated to ensuring that my patients receive the best possible treatment, focusing on evidence-based practices and continuity of care.

Throughout my career, I have effectively managed a wide range of acute and chronic conditions in busy outpatient settings. My experience includes performing in-office procedures, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and coordinating patient care pathways to optimize healthcare outcomes. I am passionate about learning and teaching, always seeking new challenges to enhance my critical thinking and analytical skills.
