About Juan
He trained as a Professional Nurse at the Colombian Red Cross in Cali, Colombia, and has worked in healthcare since 2011, roughly six of those years in direct emergency and critical care nursing. He served as Head Nurse in Emergency Services at Piloto Jamundí Hospital, as an Emergency Nurse with Emergencias Médicas S.A. in Buenos Aires, and as Head Nurse across the emergency room and intensive care unit at San Francisco Clinic, where his work covered critical protocols, ventilation and medication management, and patient triage.
More recently he has worked in clinical documentation in the United States, as a Medical Scribe supporting oncology and hematology specialists at Arizona Southwest Cancer Care. He holds current ACLS certification from the American Heart Association and HIPAA Professional certification, and works in both English and Spanish as a medical translator and interpreter.
His role in your care
Juan's clinical training and licensure are international rather than United States-based. He writes PrescribedRX's educational content; he does not prescribe and he is not your clinician. Every prescription is written by a clinician licensed in your state through Telegra MD.
How our articles are written
Articles cite their sources, such as FDA labels, peer-reviewed studies and clinical guidelines, and show the date they were last updated. They explain treatments; they do not replace a visit with a licensed clinician.
