Between June and December of 2007, Marcia Bernbaum, PhD, at the request of then-Executive Director Juan Romagoza, carried out an in-depth case study of La Clínica del Pueblo. Her task was to trace La Clínica’s history back to its founding in 1983 and examine, through the years up to 2007, what La Clínica’s “essence” was — and whether and how La Clínica was able to maintain that essence in the face of the opportunities and challenges it encountered along the way.
Dr. Bernbaum interviewed 160 individuals for the case study: 104 current and former members of La Clínica’s staff, board of directors, and patient committee; 24 La Clínica patients; and 32 individuals from outside the organization who were familiar with its operations over the years. She also observed La Clínica events and reviewed organizational documentation.
Four documents were prepared as part of this case study:
