CV Synopsis

Andreia Alexandra da Costa Azevedo Ribeiro da Rocha Antunes Graduated in Medicine (1994) at Nova Medical School. She has been a Specialist in Gynaecology and Obstetrics from Coimbra University Hospital since 2004 and Graduated Assistant from the College of Ob/Gyn (2015). She strongly advocates minimal invasive procedures and a “one-stop” diagnostic and treatment philosophy. She is also very interested in global well-being and the positive self-image of her patients. During the last 15 years, she has improved her knowledge with several postgraduate courses and master’s degrees which has allowed her to progressively widen her interest from Gynecology to Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine. Her patients have highly appreciated her. She believes in the importance of applying knowledge to social benefit because of that she is now involved in a PhD research project that joins a local industry (DRT enterprise), the University of Minho and the FCT R&D Unit – ciTechCare- Center for Innovative Care and Health Technology, with the collaboration of Hospital da Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Leiria. This project aims to translate her know-how to improve women’s quality of life.
