Dr. Salvador De la Torre Orozco

I am a doctor specialized in Clinical Neurophysiology with a master's degree in Neuroscience and have been performing intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) since 2014.

That same year I became acquainted with the Instituto Clavel and I was lucky enough to be able to collaborate with them in the operating room, although at the time I was woking with another company. I formally joined Instituto Clavel, a center where I can develop my skills and be part of a wonderful team.
