A native of Brazil, Dr. Quirno lived in São Paulo until 16 years of age. He later moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina with his family. He attended the prestigious Argentine CEMIC Medical School with a merit scholarship and graduated with an Honors Diploma. His tenacity and pursuit of excellence led him to the United States where he met Dr. Thomas Errico, Director of the Spine Surgery Division at New York University Hospital for Joint Diseases, and was invited to join as a research fellow.
During the completion of the residency program, he was awarded the Reicher Award for Excellence in Research twice. He was also invited to participate in the prestigious Orthopaedic Basic Science Research Fellowship at the Musculoskeletal Research Center at New York University Hospital for Joint Diseases between his second and third year of residency.
As a Spine Fellow at RUSH Medical Center and Shriners Hospital for Children, Dr. Quirno was fortunate enough to train with the most respected deformity, minimally invasive surgery, and motion preservation surgeons in the country, in what is considered the best training ground in the field.
Throughout his 3 years in his first clinical research fellowships as well as during residency and clinical fellowships, he received multiple awards and published numerous peer-reviewed papers.

Orthopaedic surgery is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. An orthopaedic spine surgeon is an orthopaedist who further specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal diseases and conditions. Some orthopaedic spine surgeons exclusively treat certain spinal problems such as scoliosis and degenerative disorders.
In his free time, Dr. Quirno enjoys spending time with his family, playing tennis (used to be a nationally ranked player in Brazil) and golf, as well as skiing. He speaks several languages, including English, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.
