This bust, located in the Méndez Núñez Gardens in A Coruña, pays tribute to the physician Enrique Hervada García-Sampedro. It was erected by the City Council of A Coruña in 1954, one year after his death, in recognition of his outstanding professional and humanitarian work. Much of his career was devoted to serving in A Coruña, where he provided medical care to people without financial resources.
