Doctor Dionisio José Sáez García, licentiate in Medicine and Surgery in the University of Havana in 1851, descended from a family of notable doctors. He was benefactor of Santa Isabel Hospital, where he worked as a surgeon during 18 years without any remuneration. On February 17, 1869 he was deported because of his independent ideas. Repatriated in 1878, he was the first president of the Association of Mutual Aids of Doctors and Pharmacists- later Medical Pharmaceutical College of Cardenas in 1882, first institution of this kind in the country. Due to all of this, like his predecessors, he is considered an eminent doctor.
