Being in love with medicine her whole life, Ecler began at only age 17 her medical school at The Lutheran University of Brazil. Fascinated with the comprehensive care of all ages, and the continuing care of the individual and family, she naturally embraced and pursued her focus in Family Medicine. While studying for her USLME steps, she worked as a Clinical Documentation Specialist at a hospital in Northern California, where she was able to learn medical coding and how to properly evaluate clinical documents. After completing a Family Medicine Residency at Loma Linda University Health, as well as being chief resident during her last year of training, she decided to specialize in Geriatric Medicine at UCLA. Soon after completing her fellowship in LA, she returned to Loma Linda to pursue her passion for teaching residents, caring for her family and geriatric patients. Additionally, she had the opportunity to complete the Lifestyle Medicine Board and the Obesity Medicine Board certification while working as an Assistant Professor at Loma Linda University Family Medicine Residency.
