Jose Luis Garcia Sabrido

Jose Luis Garcia Sabrido is a doctor from Spain who was brought to Cuba in 2006 to examine Fidel Castro after a bungled intestinal operation.

* The doctor's plane carried advanced medical equipment not available in Cuba.[1]

Critics of Cuban socialized medicine cite this an example of top Cuban officials needing to rely on foreign doctors, because Cuban health care is substandard.
