Testimonials

Staff Neurosurgeon, National Pediatric Hospital Prof. Dr. Juan P. Garrahan.

“I was born and raised in Pilar. From the moment I approached the Campus to inquire about the program, I was struck by the approachability of the professors, administrative staff, and faculty authorities. I chose Austral University because of the overall project the University had.”

FERNANDO CONTRERAS

Assistant Professor at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

I chose to study at Austral University because I was interested in an education at a university where academic excellence is combined with a holistic approach to the human being. From having access to professors who are the best specialists in their field, to starting my degree by seeing patients in the Doctor-Patient Relationship course, for all this and so much more, I would choose Austral University again.

“I had the opportunity to complete part of the Rotating Internship in Spain, specifically in San Sebastian and Madrid. I loved the experience in San Sebastián because it's a "little town" super quiet unlike Madrid, plus I was in a public hospital, whereas in Madrid I was in one private. Madrid is a city I love. It makes me feel Just like at home, people are really friendly and open with Argentinians.

I chose the University of Navarra because I want to specialize in Pediatric Oncology and it seemed like a unique opportunity to see the progress and management of cancer in a country that is much more advanced than ours.

It was truly a very enriching experience on a personal, professional, and cultural level. On a professional level I learned a lot about a specialty that changes year after year, such as Oncology. I lived alone, made many friends of different nationalities, mainly from Latin America and Spain, and had The opportunity to travel through much of Spain and France. I highly recommend this experience; it's unique.. "
