Once I completed my medical studies, in 1999 I began my training as orthopedist and traumatologist at the Hospital Dr. Arnulfo Arias Madrid, and later I studied my subspecialty in spine surgery for a year in the Hospital and Medical Unity of High Specialty Victorio de la Fuente Narvaez, where I completed my training in medical and surgical management of spinal conditions of traumatic and degenerative origin in all segments (cervical, thoracic and lumbar).
My training as a spine surgeon additionally included management of deformities such as scoliosis in children and adolescents in the Shriners Hospital of Mexico. Also, in an effort to maintain an updated training, I have participated in numerous conferences and practical training to keep learning procedures of last line worldwide including: minimally invasive surgery of the spine, endoscopic surgery and nucleoplasty for treating pathologies of the disc. Everything in order to offer my patients safer procedures, an easier post operative recovery and an earlier return to work and daily activities.
