ABSTRACT Julio Miguel Aristegui Villamil graduated as doctor in Medicine in the University of Havana in 1929 and came back to Cardenas, his home city, to practice his profession. His progressive ideas led him to enroll in the Izquierdad Médica (Medical Left translated in English), a group inside the Medical Federation of Cuba. Because of the selfless practice of his profession, the people began to call him “the doctor of the poors.”

Keywords : Julio Aristegui Villamil; doctor; Izquierda Médica; medicine history; Cardenas.
