With happy customers leaning out the large windows beckoning to ambulant visitors on the main street below, it’s hard, nearly impossible, not to find and climb the steep stairway leading to the contagious revelry permeating throughout the colorful décor of the BooBar. It’s small but never seems cramped, and the views from either side lead to the street action below on the Malecón or to the infinite beauty ever-abounding upon the Sea of Cortez…

But the Sandy Beach Medical Center was only part of the Doctor’s master plan for Puerto Peñasco.
