El doctor Franco García Bragado, aunque comenzó su vida profesional como médico militar de la Armada, enseguida la abandonó al aprobar una oposición convocada por la Diputación Provincial de Huesca para cubrir la vacante de cirujano del Hospital Provincial, por lo que fijó su residencia en Huesca, circunstancia que le permitiría ser testigo de los cambios habidos en la sanidad pública desde la dictadura del general Primo de Rivera y la II República hasta el franquismo, que culminarían con la construcción de la Residencia Sanitaria San Jorge en Huesca y toda la polémica que rodeó su gestación. García Bragado no solo fue cirujano del Hospital Provincial, sino que también sería su director y, además, presidente del Colegio de Médicos de Huesca, cargos que le proporcionaron una visión de conjunto del desarrollo de la sanidad pública oscense y su participación en ella.
Dr. Franco García Bragado started his career as a military doctor in the Spanish Navy, although he abandoned it in his early stages after he passed a state exam and was appointed general surgeon at the Hospital Provincial in Huesca. Moving to the city of Huesca allowed him to witness the changes that took place in the Public Health System in the period extending from the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera to the Second Republic and the Francoist Spain. During this period, the San Jorge Medical Residence Hall was built, a building whose creation generated much controversy at the time. Dr. García Bragado was not only general surgeon at the Hospital Provincial, he was also its director, and was also appointed president of the Medical Staff Association in Huesca. The experience he earned from these two positions helped him to have an overall vision of the Public Health System in Huesca and to participate actively in it.
