About the Doctor

Dr. de Vasconcelos is a board-certified radiologist (Especialista em Radiologia) holding the rank of Consultant in Radiology — the senior grade for radiologists within the Portuguese healthcare system. She has been on staff at a major hospital in the greater Porto area since 1992.

She is an attentive and highly experienced specialist. An ultrasound examination with her is more than a routine scan: it's a full diagnostic consultation. She explains what she sees, answers your questions, and provides a report your doctor can rely on when deciding on next steps.

Dr. de Vasconcelos consults in English and Portuguese. If you'd be more comfortable in Russian or another language, the UMC team can help arrange translation support during the appointment.
