Medical career

Jadresic got his Doctorate in medicine and was a professor of medicine at the University of Chile, and then Dean of Medicine from 1968 to 1972.[6] In September 1973, after the coup d'état, he was arrested and spent 51 days in the National Stadium of Chile.

When democracy was restored he returned to Chile,[7] where he specialized in endocrinology at the University of Chile. [8][9][10] [11][12] Jadresic gave an account of his career and life in a book published in 2007.[13]
