From the Doctor

I enjoy spending time with my wife and children. I have roots in Puerto Rico and enjoy returning home to visit.

I am a strong believer in the ability of a specialty trained, multidisciplinary team to deliver excellent patient care and outstanding clinical outcomes.

I am a dedicated member of the community both inside and outside of healthcare professional circles in both Pittsburgh and Florida.
