Welcome to my home page!

From a young age, I was always intrigued by medical sciences like biology and anatomy. However, I really started enjoying the art of medicine when I was able to work directly with patients. Practicing medicine is a very rich and rewarding experience for me. I have the opportunity to help others in a meaningful way.

Being your physician means more than simply treating your disease or medical concern, but rather caring for you as a whole person. If you are under my care, I will try to be a good listener and be sincere in my communication with you. And being a physician working with Kaiser Permanente means I can work efficiently, can pick up the phone and talk to other specialists as needed, and have easy access to many resources and friendly colleagues and staff. Being so well supported in this organization means I’m freed up to better support and prioritize you, my patients.

I am a native from Argentina, bilingual in Spanish and English, but I appreciate being able to interact with people from all cultures and backgrounds. Actually, the diversity of the medical conditions and the diversity of patients I meet are the main drivers behind why I chose Family Practice as my specialty. It is my goal to try to understand each of my patients and their unique situation. I try to approach patient care using my medical expertise, while also taking into account social and environmental influences and points of view.

On a personal note, when I’m not working I enjoy soccer, tennis, and sailing. I’m also interested in computers.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
