Since 2021, I've been serving in public health as part of DIF Huixquilucan, while also working as an operating room assistant at ABC Hospital Observatorio Campus since 2022. I offer private consultations both online and in-person. Throughout my career, I've delivered various public and private conferences on topics including First Aid, Sexuality in Relationships, Thanatology, and Laughter Therapy. This diverse experience allows me to bring a holistic approach to Lipedema care, addressing both physical and emotional aspects of the condition.
On our team, I focus on providing psychological and sexual support, managing chronic conditions, and addressing post-surgical sexuality concerns. I also specialize in pre- and post-surgical pain management and conduct pre-surgical evaluations. My goal is to ensure that your Lipedema journey is supported from all angles, helping you feel comfortable and confident throughout your treatment.
My approach centers on connecting deeply with you as a patient. I believe in listening attentively to your concerns and addressing your needs from both a medical and human perspective. By valuing your emotional and physical symptoms equally, I strive to provide comprehensive care that treats you as a whole person, not just a condition. This holistic view is especially crucial in Lipedema care, where emotional well-being is as important as physical treatment.
In the field of Lipedema, I've observed how profoundly this condition can affect one's self-esteem, particularly in the realm of sexuality and body image. I'm passionate about helping you reclaim your physical confidence and improve your self-perception. By addressing Lipedema from a more human-centered perspective, we can work together to enhance not just your physical health, but also your social and emotional well-being. My goal is to help you see yourself through a kinder, more appreciative lens.
I'm passionate about photography, reading, cinema, music, and martial arts. These diverse interests help me maintain a balanced perspective, which I bring to my patient care.
