Samuel Santos

politician Honduras

Samuel Santos is the president of the Medical College of Honduras (CMH) and has been a vocal critic of the presence of Cuban doctors in Honduras. He argues that their employment violates local laws, as foreign medical professionals must adhere to specific requirements, including proper documentation and working without pay. Santos believes that the Cuban doctors, who reportedly receive monthly stipends, are undermining the standards set for foreign medical practice in the country.
