Especialista certificado en dispositivos procedente de Londres. Autor y entusiasta de la educación en cardiología.
Por qué me encanta enseñar
Soy especialista certificado por el International Board of Heart Rhythm Examiners (IBHRE) en marcapasos cardíacos y desfibriladores automáticos implantables (ICD). Además, me desempeño como jefe de fisiología cardíaca en una clínica de marcapasos que realiza más de 4.000 controles de marcapasos al año. Mi pasión es la educación, por lo que creé el sitio web THE PAD, un recurso popular de información en cardiología, además de haber escrito el libro Pacemakers Made Easy.
