Upon discovering his passion for radiology, Dr. Moya proceeded to perform a residency in radiology at Mercy Catholic Medical Center (1994). To further advance his training, he conducted a fellowship in vascular and interventional radiology and angiography at the University of Texas – MD Anderson Cancer Center. In 2017, Dr. Moya received an Executive Master of Healthcare Leadership degree from Brown University School of Professional Studies. 

The doctor is board-certified diagnostic radiology and vascular and interventional radiology by the American Board of Radiology.

It oversees the certification and ongoing professional development of specialists in diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology, radiation oncology and medical physics.

Radiology is the medical discipline that uses medical imaging to diagnose and treat diseases within the body. Interventional radiology is concerned with various minimally-invasive procedures using medical imaging guidance, such as x-ray fluoroscopy, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, or ultrasound.
