a small recount is made about a group of doctors who have made important contributions not only as professionals but as revolutionary fighters along the history of our country in the war of independence against the spanish colony and later on against gerardo machado and fulgencio batista s dictatorships. we also made a careful study of the life and work of the cuban botanic and doctor of the xix century dr. sebastian alfredo de morales gonzalez who was accused of conspiracy because of his ideas of freedom and independence for his island. the main objective of the work is to present a biographic synthesis of some of these doctors to group them together into a single document for easy access to students and professors. the work is concluded setting up the human, revolutionary and professional work of these figures who are a paradigm of the cuban medicine in the xix and xx centuries.
