Dr. Goytia-Leos joined San Antonio Medical Associates in 2002 and for eighteen years was able to practice in her clinic, attend to her patients in the hospital and be available for consultations as needed by specialists. During this time, she was able to forge great relationships with multiple specialists in San Antonio and foster the importance of the patient-physician relationship as well as communication between the doctors. Unfortunately, due to changes within the practice and medicine care in general, she had to stop inpatient care and has remained focused on outpatient evidence-based medicine.
