MSHS Doctor

Background

Hello! my name is Luz Espino (Lucero) and I’m very happy to be your campus’ doctor for the third year now. You will find me at the clinic, where you are more than welcome to come whenever not feeling well. Be prepared to answer to the famous questions “how much does it hurt?” and “what did you have for breakfast/break/Lunch?” at arrival. I believe in good nutrition as the base for health, since many illnesses can be prevented with healthy habits learned in childhood.

Nutrition, tobacco prevention and alcohol abuse, adolescent medicine, medicine.
