Certification

  • In 2023, I completed my healthcare career and successfully completed my internship. I came to the United States hoping to stay for just a short time, but my permanent residency was approved, and I had two options: stay or return to Mexico to pursue my specialty in oral rehabilitation. I decided to stay and try new things. But I truly feel passionate about my career.
