Biography
I obtained my GPR in 2006, having concentrated my training in special needs and medically compromised patients, and completed my residency in periodontics and my master's in oral biology, with a focus in inflammatory processes, in 2009. During my periodontology residency, I refined my skills in periodontal procedures, including cosmetic surgeries and implant placements. I enjoy spending my spare time with my daughter, Zoe, my son, Noah, and my husband, Dr. Jan Ortiz, traveling and learning about different cultures.
