Dr. Luz Juliana Barahona

Since a very young age, I was inquisitive in how the human body worked. As I grew older, I became involved in missionary work and wanted to accompany and help relieve the suffering of other people. I have dedicated my life since to pursue a medical career and have had the privilege to serve diverse communities and all age ranges. I have a patient-family-centered approach. I like to work with my patients and their families so they have the best understanding of their disease, which in turn allows them to take good care of themselves and to make informed, sound decisions. I try to foster an environment in which the patients and their families feel knowledgeable and empowered for the care of their disease. Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy cooking, baking and traveling.
