Jose Puerto, PA

As a physician assistant at Sanitas, I give my patients personalized, compassionate and excellent medical care. I'm here for them. When I know that I was able to provide medical care to someone who needed it and that he or she left the medical center fully satisfied, that means it's been a good day at work. Having healthier, happier and satisfied patients is how I measure success.  

I was born in Cuba and I moved to the U.S. with my family in 1962. Because I had a passion for helping people, medicine was my career choice. Knowing that I could positively impact my patients’ lives makes me work harder every day.

At the end of the day, I'm thankful that I was able to help others. When I'm not working, my absolute favorite thing to do is spend time with my family—share my life with them. In my free time, I also enjoy working in my backyard, traveling with my family, fishing and kayaking.
