Graduated Fellowship Spotlight

Fellowship Spotlight – Dr. Carlos Rueda 

“It was faith that led me to Sono Bello. In a difficult time of my life where I was looking to change my career path.  I was working as a vascular surgeon, and although I still enjoyed patient care and vascular surgeries, I was clearly burned out from call and administration.  It was a difficult decision because I gave up what I knew and what I was comfortable doing.  

Once I arrived at Sono Bello in Denver, Dr. Morton and his team welcomed me and I began to learn the art of aesthetic surgery.  Initially, I was overwhelmed with the amount of information and new skills I had to learn, but I remembered back to my training as a resident and fellow in surgery, this helped regain some of my confidence in learning the new information and skills that I was presented.  Today, I feel well prepared to do aesthetic surgery at Sono Bello and I am very fortunate to work in the same center as my mentor, Dr. Morton.  I know I will be supported by him and the staff.  I look forward to a long career helping patients look and feel better about themselves.  I also look forward to continuing learning and improving my skills as an aesthetic surgeon at Sono Bello.”
