The Zaldivar Institute found its home in Mendoza, where it has grown in these past 50 years. It was a risky gamble at the time that Dr. Roger Eleazar Zaldivar decided to implement his plan in this province. Afterwards, it was sustained by his son Roberto, with the intimate conviction that it wasn’t necessary to be in Buenos Aires to offer the best eye care service in the country, where the most complex operations are performed, and it functions as support for its branch in Buenos Aires. During its past 5 decades of history, the Institute has become a model for global ophthalmology, within the context of human, professional and technological avant-garde transformation. Its work is based on the principals of ethics, development and an absolute respect for its patients, staff, providers, community and the environment. The Zaldivar Institute constitutes a great pride for the city of Mendoza and for every Argentinean.
