Top Hispanic Docs

Welcome to EXTRA’s special health supplement insert commemorating some of the top doctors in our communities. Last month, EXTRA accepted nominations for Latino doctors who go over and beyond to serve the community. We were looking for doctors that do double duty, volunteer their time outside their medical practice, have developed programs or work with free clinics or nonprofits. We were looking for special traits that put these doctors in a different category than what is considered the norm.

EXTRA received many nominations from hospitals, clinics and members of the community. Below, you will read the profiles of 10 extraordinary doctors who are clinicians, treat patients and go beyond their responsibilities to help the community and the next generation of Latino physicians.

The top Hispanic doctors are:

• Bea Mounts, M.D.
• Frank M. Castillo, M.D., M.A., FAAFP
• Jorge A. Cavero, M.D
• Luis R. Muñoz, M.D., M.P.H.
• Ricardo Senno, M.D., M.S., FAAPMR
• Alejandro Clavier, M.D., M.P.H.
• Gilberto Muñoz, M.D. M.P.H.
• Joseph Leija, M.D.
• Juan Zapata, M.D.
• Virginia Bishop, M.D., M.P.H

EXTRA would like to thank everyone who submitted a nomination for a doctor.
