Cuba’s prestigious medical centers and healthcare facilities have established large-scale medical programs and practices based on the best ranking international medical standards.

By using the experience Cuba has won in more than two centuries of medical services, the strong infrastructure and logistics of the national health system, the support from the pharmaceutical industry, technologies from the what is called the “Scientific Pole” (a science park to the west of Havana), and the expertise of highly competitive human resources, Cuba has created a group of programs covering high-demand specialties with world-renown status in the treatments of conditions in fields such as Ophthalmology, Dermatology, Orthopedics, Neurology and Neurosurgery, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Adult and Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery, Oncology Surgery, and Bariatric Surgery.
