What our patients say about Dr Cristina Rodriguez-Garcia
What her colleagues say about her
I met Cristina when we were 19-years-old. I have witnessed how hard she has worked to excel in every aspect of her life. Being next to her during her medical training, gave me an idea of how hard doctors work and the countless sacrifices they make to look after others. Nowadays, I see the huge amount of work she does for her patients outside the clinic, how much she cares about them and the importance of continuous study and research. For that reason, I have the highest admiration and respect for doctors.
Cristina is not only an inspirational leader, she is also a very curious person, with an incredible memory able to connect the dots with the same mastery of a great detective.
