DVM MRCVS
GPcert(Ophthal) - ECVO Resident
Raquel graduated in 2016 from the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain). After working in general practice, she undertook a rotating internship at the referral teaching Veterinary Hospital of the Catholic University of Valencia (Spain). Her interest in ophthalmology encouraged her to move to the UK in 2020 concluding a Certificate in Ophthalmology by the ISVPS.
She joined the Optivet Referrals in 2020, and after completing a rotating and ophthalmology internship, she worked as a clinician for almost a year. In 2023, Raquel started her position as an ECVO resident under the supervision of Marta Portillo, Prado Cebrián and Joy Ioannides.
Outside of work, she loves dancing, trekking and practising yoga.
