(Dr. Luis Maria Guerrero)

<p>
Dr. Guerrero possessed an amazingly keen memory and a pair of clinical eyes which aided him in making a snap diagnosis of patients, rarely using a 

stethoscope.  His diagnostic ability was legendary for he oftentimes could visualize what many physicians failed to recognize. His unusually sharp 

sense of perception was a distinguishing mark through which he had achieved fame.
</p>
<p>
One of his chief virtues as a doctor and professor of medicine was his noble spirit of self-sacrifice for ailing mankind. It was known that a good 

number of times, he was assailed by abdominal pains or colic while prodding patiently on, and administering the sick. He would take his meals, which 

consisted mainly of a can of "Bear Brand" milk, in his car, just so he could carry out his heavy daily schedule of visits. He knew the moral 

imponderable, curative value of the presence of the physician and his presence to many patients radiated and infused confidence, hope, redemption.
</p>
<p>
He was also a writer in his younger days, a contemporary of such foremost Filipino authors as Cecillo Apostol, Rafael Palma, Fernando Ma. Guerrero, 

and Manuel S. Guerrero.  Most of his literary works were short stories revealing his keen sense of humor and his mastery of the Spanish language.
