Celebrating 10 Years of 'Hablando con su Doctor'

This summer marks the 10th anniversary of “Hablando con su Doctor,” the region’s only Spanish-language medical radio show, hosted by Dr. Leonardo Claros, Bariatric Surgeon at St. Luke’s.

Every Saturday morning on La Mega radio (101.7 FM and 92.9 FM) at 7:30 am, Dr. Claros brings trusted health information to the Latino community—one conversation at a time. Over the past decade, he’s recorded more than 450 episodes, covering everything from cardiology to community health, often joined by fellow Spanish-speaking physicians and local leaders.

When Claros is out and about in the community, people will turn to him, having recognized him by voice, not by face. “‘You’re the Latino Doctor!’ they’ll say,” Dr. Claros shared.

“Being recognized as the Spanish voice, the link to our Latino community for trusted health care wisdom, is truly an honor.”

The show became a lifeline during the COVID-19 pandemic, helping dispel myths and encourage vaccination. Its impact has earned recognition from the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, local media, and city officials.

What began as a simple idea—connecting St. Luke’s services with the Hispanic community—has grown into a trusted platform for health, hope, and connection.

"It has been a true pleasure and privilege to be able to serve our community while advancing the St. Luke's mission,” Dr. Claros said.

A special anniversary episode is planned to celebrate this milestone and reaffirm St. Luke’s commitment to the Latino community.
