Professional profile

A specialist in radiodiagnostics with a primary focus on interventional neuroradiology, with experience in the diagnosis and endovascular treatment of complex neurovascular conditions, including the management of acute ischaemic stroke and other neurointerventional emergencies.

His practice combines technical precision, planning and evidence-based decision-making in critical situations, whilst maintaining a person-centred approach to care, clear communication and clinical support. He combines clinical practice with involvement in clinical research and publications in the field of interventional neuroradiology.

Education

His educational background combines a degree in Medicine and a MIR specialisation with European accreditation in neuroradiology, a PhD and advanced training in management.

2016 – 2018 | Executive MBA. IESE.
2014–2016 | European Diploma in Neuroradiology (EDiNR). European Board of Neuroradiology (EBNR).
2013–2015 | PhD in Medicine. Complutense University of Madrid.
2009 – 2013 | Specialisation in Radiodiagnostics (MIR). San Carlos Clinical Hospital, Madrid.
2002 – 2008 | Bachelor’s Degree in Medicine. Autonomous University of Madrid.

Professional experience

He has built his career in interventional neuroradiology departments within hospitals, taking part in stroke care programmes and highly complex neurovascular procedures.

2015 – 2026 | Interventional neuroradiologist. San Carlos Clinical Hospital.
