“Ageing and death are immutable facts of life, bt how we live until our last day is not”
ELIZABETH BLACKBURN | Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2009
I am an MD (UNLP) specialised in nephrology (UBA ) and a former member of the Argentinian Society of Nephrology and the Council of Glomerulopathies of the Nephrological Association of Buenos Aires. Even though I have experience in many nephrological areas, I've been mostly working on clinical nephrology focusing on rare kidney diseases and conservative renal care.
The pillars of my practice are precision medicine and technological innovations within the framework of an empathic physician-patient relationship. Given that this strategy requires dedication time, my appointments are an hour long
