Dr Julissa Herrera, specialist in anaesthesiology, resuscitation and pain medicine, with over 10 years of clinical experience in the diagnosis and treatment of pain.

Medical practice is based on clinical excellence, scientific rigour, and high specialisation.

Each diagnosis and treatment is founded on proven medical knowledge, data, and advanced techniques, with the objective of offering precise, personalised solutions oriented towards maximising results, minimising invasiveness and risks.
