Dr. Aliosky Montero Escala

He came to Las Tunas by another chance, and the son of Mantua, Pinar del Río, confesses that he carries the duality rooted in him because this is also his homeland.

He was barely tall enough to stand above the table and one thing was already very clear to him: "I'm going to be a doctor." And the reminder came to him with a mixture of commitment and vocation, because in his lineage, at some point, thirty-something wore white coats... So that would also be his path, but he was not going to be an ordinary one but "the one that people would like the most...”

Forensic Medicine specialist Eliani Gómez Velázquez.

Underneath the white coat, 28 years have passed quickly, as if it were a sin to waste time because life is a bundle of opportunities, only while you breathe… Eliani has too many commitments in her shoes, sometimes they even exceed the 24 hours of the busiest day, but she assures that they have a vertex in a great passion: “Being a forensic expert.”
