Biography
Born in Cuba, Dr. Albuerne came to the USA via the Freedom flights with his family in 1966. After a short stay in Miami, he moved to Baltimore, where his father started his internship at Bon Secours Hospital. He completed his primary education, and in 1975 moved to Miami, FL, to begin his pre-medical education at the University of Miami and subsequently Medical School at Ross University.
Dr. Albuerne came back to Baltimore to complete a residency in Internal Medicine at St. Agnes Hospital, after which he decided to make Maryland his home. When he started in private practice, he was very upset with the general neglect, disregard, and often abuse of the elderly. He decided to pursue a sub-specialty in the emerging field of Geriatric Medicine. He obtained his board certification in Internal Medicine and Geriatric Medicine.
