Monasterio, a native of Venezuela, signed merchandise and spoke about the importance of serving the Hispanic community. More than 80% of the clinic's patients are of Hispanic/Latinx heritage, according to Aurora Health Care.
"We're all so excited that they took the time to come and honor us with his presence, because as you know, representation is so important for our communities," said Chris Casselman, clinic operations manager. "We're proud of Andruw. He's part of us, part of our community."
