Clary Montalvo, M.D.

Dr. Clary Montalvo was born and raised in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. She knew from a young age she wanted to be a doctor. After participating in a summer medical immersion program during her last year of high school, she decided to attend medical school to fulfill her dream.

She earned her medical degree from the Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara-School of Medicine in Jalisco, Mexico, and completed her residency at Mayaguez Medical Center in Puerto Rico.
