Biography
Dr. Gonzalez grew up in Asturias, Spain. She developed a passion for neuroimmunology while completing a MS postdoctoral clinical research fellowship at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. She is excited and thrilled to establish the first of its kind MS & Neuromuscular program with a focus on Neuroimmunology for Hawaii and the Pacific Regions.
With the development of new therapeutic targets and approval of new medications including IV biologics to treat these Neuromuscular, MS & Neuroimmunology disorders, this field is rapidly evolving and gaining complexity. Being the first specialists in Hawaii to have dual fellowship training in Neuroimmunology and Neuromuscular disease, she is thrilled to develop the first of its kind program with focus on Neuroimmunology in mastering the management of these complex conditions, to help bridge that gap including bringing the latest treatments and active clinical trial and research to Hawaii’s patients. Her goal is to become a trusted resource for patients who may otherwise have limited options to optimally manage their conditions.
