The Latin American School of Medicine (ELAM, founded 1999) is an internationally significant Cuban medical school that has trained tens of thousands of low-income international students from across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, and elsewhere — often free of charge — in a community-oriented medical model. ⚠️ Recognition of the ELAM MD for practice in your home country must be independently verified (graduates typically must pass their home country's licensing examinations); see the practical advisory. Official standalone website could not be confidently verified — confirm via the Cuban Ministry of Public Health / Ministry of Higher Education.
