Jose is from Caracas, Venezuela where he practiced as an OB/GYN for over 30 years. Sonography was one of the aspects that he enjoyed the most from his practice, as well as being part of that life changing moment where parents get to see their child for the very first time.

In retirement, Jose relocated to Madrid, Spain. His passion for the field led him to continue practicing sonography conducting OB ultrasounds. After 3 years in Madrid, Jose and his wife realized that they wanted to be closer to family and decided to move to Florida to become a permanent fixture in their grandchildren’s lives and be closer to their daughter and son-in-law, who are both pediatricians at a local children’s hospital in St. Petersburg.

Jose is excited to join the team at Baby Scene and continue his life’s passion of creating that special moment of introducing parents to their babies through 4D and 5D HD ultrasound.

Valorie, founder of Baby Scene, knew the importance of making a lasting first impression and created a space that was so much more than just sonograms. With a background in event planning and art and design (check out her original artwork created for Baby Scene at your appointment), you’ll find Valorie at most ultrasound appointments taking candid pictures of mamas and chatting away.

As a native of Tampa with Latin roots, Valorie has a deep love of family. It is not uncommon for her to sit with a single mama and hold her hand, or pass out champagne to get the party started. Valorie wanted to create a space that was more than just an appointment, but rather a unique and memorable experience.
