OUR TEAM

LUIS POGGIO

 

My initial dental training was carried out in Madrid. I then went on to complete my studies at New York University. There, I got a master’s degree specialising in implantology and periodontology.

Once I finished my academic training, the university offered me a fellowship to stay for a second year. During that year, I split my time between the aesthetic department and teaching oral surgery students, which not only allowed me to learn surgical techniques, but also to develop a work philosophy which ultimately became a way of life.

When I went back to Spain, Hospitales San Roque offered me the possibility of running the dentistry department, an offer which I could not turn down. This exciting project has grown and evolved over the years until today, leading to the excellent facilities we have now available. This added value allows me to provide the best possible care to my patients, while developing the experience I acquired in New York and updating my knowledge every year according to both American and European Academies.  Because, the way I see it, continuous training is essential for health sciences.
