Dr. Luisam Tarrats

Dr. Tarrats attended his undergraduate studies in Biology at Louisiana State University, the University of Minnesota and at El Colegio de Mayagüez. He followed his academic endeavors with post-grad studies in Molecular Cell Physiology at Yale School of Medicine. Subsequently, he returned to Puerto Rico and became the fifth person ever to graduate from the MD-JD combined program offered by the University of Puerto Rico Schools of Medicine and Law. During this period Dr. Tarrats started to demonstrate his ongoing promise with improving Puerto Rico health issues by founding and presiding the Puerto Rico’s Medical Student Association. He then completed a residency in Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery at the University of Puerto Rico – Medical Sciences Campus. While in residency he developed a keen interest in sinonasal diseases and the field of Rhinology. He had the opportunity to train under the guidance of the only two rhinologists in PR at the time who have been valuable mentors to him in his pursuit for further specialization in this field.
