We bring to Como our experience that can count on physicians and health personnel of proven professionalism, attentive to the continuous updating of skills and technological innovation and, an essential factor for us, well aware of receiving the trust of people who entrust us with their most precious asset, life." "The Auxologico in Como," added Dr. Giorgio Bellati medical director of Auxologico Como, "responds to the will of the philosophy of this nonprofit foundation that wants it increasingly close to the health needs of the population. The purpose of the medical and surgical activities of this new facility is to take charge of the patient as a person, accompanying him in his diagnostic and therapeutic path, making available to him all that Auxologico can offer."
