Nicaraguan
capital
to

comprises
professionals
with
experience
in
treating
hearing,
language
and
learning
disorders,
as
well
the
diagnosis
and
treatment
of
chronic
genetic
diseases.
Most
of
these
doctors
participated
in
the
initial

which
began
in

2009
and
lasted
12
months,
which
will

said.
The

returned
home
to
continue
their
education
under
the
tutelage
of
the

Che
Guevara
Medical
Brigade
members.
Rodriguez
said
the
objective
is
to
evaluate
patient
progress
and
find
solutions
to
their
problems,
as
well
as
to
diagnose
possible
critical
cases.
There
is
also
the
possibility
of
helping
patients
with
100
