Cat Scan San Fernando Clinic Coronado

According to Elisa de Lewis, General Director of the San Fernando Hospital, this project was conceived of years ago by doctors at the San Fernando hospital in Panama City who had a desire to expand and improve the medical service and coverage in other areas of Panama where it is required. They choose to build this clinic in Coronado first because it is relatively close to Panama City, and and the need for something in the Coronado area. The site of the clinic is strategically good to expand into the interior of the country and offer medical services."
