Beatriz Castillo-Benitez, APRN

As a nurse practitioner at Sanitas, my patients will receive quality healthcare services from me and the other medical professionals on my team. Patient satisfaction is my utmost priority. A good day at work means providing healthcare to all my patients on time and seeing their health concerns satisfied. When my patients leave the medical center with a smile on their face, it’s been a good day at work. I decided to go into medicine because I’ve always had a passion for science and taking care of those in need. Healthcare gives me the unique opportunity to practice both—a privilege I never take for granted. 

I was born in Havana, Cuba, and grew up in the Nuevo Vedado region. My family and I came to the United States in 2014 in search of better opportunities. Spanish is my native language, but I am also fluent in English, Italian and French. Being multilingual allows me to communicate better with my patients who are from a diverse range of countries and cultures.

When I take off my coat, my absolute favorite thing to do is spend time with my family and friends.
