Marisa Manzano Surroca

I work as a plastic, restorative and cosmetic surgeon and my specialty is breast and soft tissue pathology. One of my goals is to turn the Hospital into a reference center for research and treatment of these diseases. The most comforting part of my profession is knowing that my work helps children and adolescents to develop as well as possible.
