Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Ileana Martin-Carrera, who is Dr. Oscar W. Carballo Sr.s wife, and mother of Dr. Oscar Carballo Jr., concluded his studies in human medicine and graduated in 1976, in Cuba. She also obtained a PhD from Le Charité University Hospital, in Berlin, Germany, in 1982. Dr. Martin-Carrera was one of the first Cuban women that received a scholarship from the Alexander Von Humboldt Stiftung/Foundation to develop a research project in Hanovers School of Medicine (MHH), Germany. She also worked for over ten years as a medical technologist at Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami, Florida. Now Dr. Martin-Carrera is in charge of all the laboratory testing and lab work in general, as well as the majority of all the administrative operations of the facility. An unconditional pet lover, Dr. Martin-Carerra constantly imprints a particular and distinctive touch of attention and care towards the animals, which has allowed, among a series of other factors, a standard growth rate of almost three new patients a day during the years the clinic has been in business.
