General Info

About me

Medicine is a profession that is humane and compassionate to the pain and suffering of others, providing seriousness, professionalism, and excellence, while always developing. Cardiovascular diseases are the most common causes of death in Costa Rica and many other countries of the world. Promoting positive behaviors of prevention and using methods of early detection are the best ways in which this mortality rate will be reduced so that overall we can have a better quality of life.
