Review of the military and civil biography of Dr. Alfredo Pérez Viondi (1871-1938), from his birth in Havana to his death in Vigo. Studies, military career, participation in the wars of Cuba and Morocco, passing through Santiago, La Coruña, Madrid, Huesca, Pontevedra and Vigo. We describe his active participation in the society of the cities he lived and we quote prominent figures who influenced him. In Vigo, where he was mayor (1929-1930), he played a very important role in defending municipal public health. He was civil governor of Huesca (1931) and director of the Military Hospital of Vigo (1917-1931). Without children, his few family responsibilities allowed him to concentrate on a brilliant professional, military and political career.

Keywords : Military medicine; Mayor of Vigo; Military Hospital; Civil governor.
