Dr Sara Azevedo

Sara Azevedo has lived in all regions of Portugal, moving 26 times to 10 different cities due to her father’s occupation as a judge. She became a family doctor because she finds fulfilment in helping others, with her favourite aspect being communication with her patients. She describes it as a dance, involving different rhythms, non-verbal cues, psychological support, and adjustments.

Sara Azevedo specializes in mental health, and paediatric nutrition, and has a keen interest in women’s health. At Alegria, she appreciates the diverse teams, excellent facilities, and the opportunity to see patients from different backgrounds. This allows her to change languages between each consultation and to get an insight into each other’s cultures. It makes her travel!
