The headquarters of Prestomedia hosted, on Wednesday, September 24, an event organized by The Diplomat in Spain in collaboration with the Quirónsalud Group, dedicated to reflecting on the main challenges and advances in women’s comprehensive health.
Under the title “Women’s Health,” the roundtable brought together specialists from Ruber International Hospital of the Quirónsalud Group, who shared with members of the diplomatic corps accredited in Spain the latest medical insights in gynecology, obstetrics, assisted reproduction, menopause, and aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
In a session moderated by public health specialist Dr. José Ignacio Echániz, Dr. Juan Vidal, Head of the Women’s Unit, opened the discussion with an overview of advances in comprehensive care for women throughout the different stages of life.
