At an early age, Fabio moved with his family to San Juan de la Maguana, located at the center of the first European settlement in the Americas and known as the Dominican South’s grain basket because of its rich agriculture, where he lived until he graduated from high school.
Between seventeen and forty-four, Fabio developed an intense and extensive academic career that gave him a licensure in physics at the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo, a master in physics at the University of Puerto Rico–Rio Piedras, a fellowship in medical physics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, a master in political sciences at Pedro Henriquez Urena National University in Santo Domingo, and a doctorate in medicine at the Santo Domingo Institute of Technology.
Fabio was a physics lecturer for twenty years at Pedro Henriquez Urena National University in Santo Domingo, where he was director of the physics department between 1990 and 1996, and a lecturer at the department of political sciences. He was pretty active in politics, being a member of the Dominican Liberation Party (DLP), founded by Juan Bosch, between 1978 and 1996. He was DLP vice-secretary of professional affairs between 1991 and 1996.
In 1996, Fabio relocated to the United States, where he has resided since, with his wife and two daughters. He completed a five-year radiation oncology residency program at the University of Texas Health Science Center–San Antonio in 2001. Since he completed his specialty, he has worked as a radiation oncologist in clinics and hospitals in the states of Iowa, New York, Texas, and Wisconsin. He has worked during the last ten years in several Gamma Knife centers. Fabio is board certified as radiation oncologist by the American Board of Radiology (ABR).view less
