Abstract
Since the late 1990s, Miami residents have likely encountered Cuban-trained physicians in clinics and hospitals, but not only. Also as taxi drivers, old folks homes’ assistants, and facial massage specialists. It would seem that – for many Cuban medical professionals, including those initially bound for Third World countries- the United States is a prized final destination. Could Cuba’s international solidarity program become, for would-be immigrants to the U.S., a means to that end? As an oral historian, I decided to go beyond the competing discourses presented in the press and seek the views of Cuban medical professionals themselves.
