Cancer management requires highly trained specialists, capable of combining the most advanced surgical technologies with empathetic and person-centered care. In Panama, Dr. Roberto García Castillo —recognized in digital environments as @doc_anticancer— stands out for his international academic career and an active commitment to the integral well-being of his patients.
International Training and High Surgical Specialization
Dr. García Castillo’s career is supported by continuous preparation in globally renowned medical centers:
- Robotic and Minimally Invasive Surgery: Trained at the Santa Fe Foundation in Bogotá (Colombia), implementing cutting-edge surgical procedures that allow faster recoveries and with less impact on the patient.
- Advanced Mastology: Specialization at the Technological Hospital of Madrid (Spain), strengthening its skills in the diagnosis and approach of breast pathologies.
- Surgical Leadership and Lifestyle Medicine: Graduated from Harvard Medical School’s Surgical Leadership Program, a comprehensive approach that combines technical rigor with active prevention and innovation in health.
Lifestyle Medicine: Prevention at the Treatment Center
A fundamental pillar in Dr. García Castillo’s work philosophy is Lifestyle Medicine. Scientific evidence supports that controlling everyday risk factors (such as nutrition, rest, physical activity and exposure to inflammatory agents) has a direct influence on the prognosis and prevention of oncological recurrences.
Breath of Life Foundation: A Space of Support and Hope
Understanding the emotional dimension of the disease led Dr. García to found the support group Breath of Life in 2022. This non-profit initiative provides cancer patients and survivors with a community space of containment.
Continuous accompaniment and well-being
Through the foundation, the following are organized:
- Training and recreational workshops: Spaces such as painting workshops and group dynamics.
- Promotion of physical activity: Outdoor days (such as dance workshops in Parque Omar) aimed at improving physical and mental health.
- Support Network: A group where patients share experiences and strengthen their recovery process.
