FERREIRA MORENO, Víctor Guillermo. Francisco Domínguez Roldán, MD. Contribution to the knowledge of his life and work. Rev haban cienc méd [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.5 Epub 10-Oct-2022. ISSN 1729-519X.
Introduction:
The services provided by Dr. Francisco Dominguez to the homeland (Havana, February 14th, 1864 - April 25th, 1942), defending the independence in the jungle and later in peace and advocating the cause of education, along with his dedication to enhancing the memory of Finlay as the precursor of the discovery of the transmission of yellow fever, and his work for the development of medicine in general and definitively for that of Radiology in particular are truly exceptional, but little known.
Objective:
to describe and share features of the multifaceted career of Dr. Dominguez.
Material and Methods:
Historical research methods such as analytical-synthetic and inductive-deductive methods, as well as chronological and geographic sub-methods were used.
Results:
Elements of his studies, remarkable scientific life, his teaching at the Havana School of Medicine, surgical performance, his secretariat for Public Instruction and Fine Arts, patriotism and finlaism are collected and exposed.
Conclusions:
Dr. Dominguez is undoubtedly one of the most important personalities in Cuban medicine and one of the few names to which the liberating history of the Homeland, the university and academic work, and the progress of Cuban medicine appear so deeply linked.
