dc.description	Durante los primeros 50 años de fundada la villa de San Cristóbal de La Habana, la atención de los problemas de salud de sus ciudadanos estuvo principalmente en manos de los cirujanos barberos, cuyas prácticas en muchas ocasiones resultaba peor que la enfermedad a tratar. Algunos médicos habían estado en La Habana, provenientes de Santiago de Cuba o México, pero sólo de tránsito a otros lugares más atractivos; el 26 de febrero de 1569, el cabildo de la ciudad, máxima autoridad para ejercer las leyes y destinos de sus ciudadanos según encomienda del rey de España, autorizaba al licenciado Gregorio Gamarra para ejercer la profesión de médico en la villa, siendo esta la primera vez que la ciudad contaba con esta profesión reconocida por sus autoridades y ciudadanos, otorgándole todos los privilegios y deberes que esto implicaba.<br>During its first 50 years of foundation, the medical attention of the citizens of the village of San Cristobal de La Habana was mainly in the hands of the barber surgeons, whose practices were many times worse than the disease to be treated. Some physicians from Santiago de Cuba or from Mexico had been in La Habana, but just on their way to more attractive places. On February 26th, 1569, the town council of the city that was the highest authority to apply the law and to determine the destiny of its citizens, according to the mission of the King of Spain, authorized Bachellor Gregorio Gamarra to practice his medical profession in the village. It was the first time this profession was recognized by the city’s authorities and citizens, granting him all the priviliges and duties inherent to this position.
