About

Lily Guzmán

    She was born and has lived most her time in Puerto Rico, with the exception of her time in Miami, Florida, where she trained to become a Rheumatologist. She is a board-certified Internal Medicine and Rheumatology physician based in Puerto Rico.

    When she is not working, she is spending time with her family and beloved dog, Nico. Inspired by the comfort that provides Nico and the resilience of her patients, particularly those living with chronic pain, she began writing Gentle Hugs. Her book was created as a reminder that it’s never too early to learn the power of empathy and compassion, qualities that needs daily care and attention to prosper.
