The partition of the Territory of Quintana Roo, and its reestablishment during the government of the president Cardenas established the bases for Payo Obispo`s city to begin its development as a capital of the territory; at the same time it was renaimed as Chetumal. The destruction of the city caused by the passage of Hurricane Janet, gave the opportunity to rebuild the city and establish the current health institutions. In this second part, we will expose the contributions of military medicine to the capital of Quintana Roo, in the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century.
