This is a late comment. Commentator Max is correct in all respects. San Juan Bautista has always been a good school- from the beginning. They had high standards. The AMA did not like the school because it was begun without consulting the proper professional bodies. And the AMA had a valid point of irritation. However, years of high standards and hard work cannot be ignored. Many top medical pros were trained there - including top practitioners in Puerto Rico. Medical Boards tend to grant approval to all the prior graduates from non-accredited years, in light of
a school receiving LCME approval. Importantly,the San Juan Bautista school had other accreditations,both from the Puerto Rican Authorities and from the Central States prior to getting the LCME. It is a good school. In the end however,you yourself must prove yourself in medicine.The school is important, but is secondary to the physician -and
incredibly talented physicians doing great public good have on occasion
been prepared at mediocre institutions. In the end, it is you against the
grim reaper- so read, think and listen to your patients. Regards,honeybeemd
