Filipe loves the adrenaline of Emergency Medicine, but is also deeply passionate about continuing care and Medicine in all of its facets. When it came to choosing a specialty, he liked so many fields he could not pick a specific one, so he decided to become specialised in General Practice, better said, Family Medicine. Therefore, Filipe considers the patient first of all as a person, beyond a presentation of symptoms. He loves a good jigsaw puzzle in diagnosing health problems to assist patients to take responsibility for the health path they choose.
‘Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It is a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognise our shared humanity’, Pema Chödrön. Inside and outside of Medicine, Filipe loves a good laugh (what a good remedy!), is a reiki master and enjoys too many things in life to count.
