Eloisa Diaz

The  greatest person in Chile. by Alonso
So now, I am going to talk about Eloisa Diaz, she was born in Santiago in 25 of june in 1866 and died in 1954 at 84 years old, she was the first female surgeon/doctor on graduate of the medicine college of Universidad de Chile in 1881 when the decree of providing women to the access on universities was current at 1877, at the time she had to suffer the prejudice of men in the college including proffesors and classmates but she din't give up and she published her memory title, nowdays her memory title it's on the memories of the Universidad de Chile, in the proffesional habit she worked as an assistant in the obstetritian clinic of the doctor Roberto Moericke between 1888 and 1891, later to be integrated on the medic comunity of the San Borja hospital on january of 1891. at the same time being a teacher and medic in the "Escuela Normal de Preceptores del Sur" until 1897. her debts are very important because she analized the higienc conditions of the schools, she fought against the diseases, she promoted the obligatory breakfast on public schools, also promoted the massive vacunation on people, and she in 1906 published an interesting article about feeding children in public schools, also founding free kindergartens, participating on many cientific institutions, and many other important things in the medic/eductional habit, retiring at the age of 60.
If I can made her a question it woud be "What impulse you to be such a great doctor and help the poor people?"

  4. Eloisa made a real change to Chile, exclusively to the chilean women, she was a real fighter and the fact that she never give up, makes people see it as a real hero, and of course that she was.
