About me
«My tests are normal, but I still feel awful.»
- Anesthesiology
- Pain Medicine
- Palliative Care
I'm Catalina Moreno Quijano. An anesthesiologist and specialist in Pain Medicine and Palliative Care.
I trained at Colombia's National Cancer Institute with the most complex pain cases in the country, and today I teach at Universidad CES and Universidad de Antioquia. All of that comes back every time I hear 'but my tests came back normal'.
When you want to talk about your case, write to me.

Two ways of treating your pain
I start by listening, I explain what's going on, and we design the plan together.
How I work
How does the care work?
Chronic pain doesn't get solved in a single visit. These are the steps.
-
Step 01
Reach out
Via WhatsApp or through the form on this site. Message me directly here:
+57 318 125-9853 -
Step 02
First consultation
We take the time to understand your full pain history. In person in Medellín or virtual.
-
Step 03
Personalized plan
We evaluate the options together: medication, interventional, lifestyle strategies, or a combination.
-
Step 04
Follow-up
Follow-up is part of the treatment, not an extra. We meet as many times as it takes.
If you chose a virtual consultation, I'll send you the Google Meet link via WhatsApp once the appointment is confirmed.
Verified reviews
What my patients say
Verified reviews from people who've already come in for care. If I treated you, your experience can help someone else take the first step.
Daily education
What your doctor didn't have time to explain, I explain here
Reels, carousels and lives about chronic pain and fibromyalgia. The longer explanations that don't fit in a consultation.
