I became a doctor to help people, I suppose like most of us. Then I decided to become a gynecologist because I thought it was the specialty that, within medicine, had the best news for its patients. I thought it was sensational to be able to help give life.

At that moment, I suppose I was only thinking about pregnancy follow-up and childbirth, but then I realized there was an even better way to give life. And it was helping couples who need it to get pregnant.

Also, when I was studying at university, I had a special interest in everything related to hormones. During my gynecology specialty, I was fortunate to have great teachers in this field, who made me like it even more.

So, in summary, I suppose it was the combination of these two factors.

Working at Fertty is working in a leading center for assisted reproduction in Barcelona, working with the latest technology, working with professionals with extensive experience in the field, and working in a private center that invests in research and development.

For me, working at Fertty is a stroke of luck and a great opportunity to continue growing in this field.

I believe I am an empathetic, sincere, and very hardworking person, and I try to be that way with my patients.

Initially, I explain to patients their options and chances of success clearly and truthfully, detailing all the procedures to be performed.

Then, I accompany my patients at every moment of the treatment, I am by their side throughout its development, providing them with my full support and collaborating on any decisions to be made.

I am 100% involved in every one of my treatments because what for someone may be a simple assisted reproduction cycle, for a couple or a woman, may be the hope of something as wonderful as having a baby.

Yes, when a couple or a single woman comes to see me to have a baby, they are placing one of their greatest hopes in me. This makes that during an assisted reproduction treatment, emotions run high, and the relationship that is created becomes much more than just a cordial doctor-patient relationship. Often, in this context, you end up getting to know your patients very well and sharing incredible stories of struggle and personal overcoming.

The priorities in my life outside of work are my family, my friends, and sports (in that order). So, I dedicate my free time to them. Also, I love traveling to get to know different ways of thinking and understanding life.

I’m an extroverted, active, and optimistic person. Still, I spend my life worrying about others (the nature of the job, I suppose). Also, as my family has always said, my greatest strength is my willpower and discipline. I suppose I am very demanding with myself and with others.
