"To whom this may interest:
I want to let know my opinion on my friend Miguel-Ángel Meizoso-González
...
I met Meizoso over ten years ago at the Center for Psychoanalytical Studies
and Researches where we both take part. From that time we had often met
and we have exchanged an important correspondence concerning our clinical
experience, also on arts and literary subjects.
It means that I highly appreciate the level of erudition of Meizoso, and
base in our communications, I think he is very learned on clinical and
therapeutic matters concerning psychiatric patients, and particularly
psychotics with whom I had myself undertaken research work over several
years.
Otherwise, it should be highlighted that my psychiatric colleague Dr.
Gentizon did not hesitate to entrusted him the clinical direction of the
Psychotherapeutic complex Broussais (day and night hospitals as well ambulatory
services). He who knows the contemporary developments of the French Public
Psychiatric Services, understands clearly that such a high responsibility
involved the treatment of illness extremely diverse, regarding the age
as well as the pathology, and is indeed a strait forward acknowledgements
that the skills and the talents of Meizoso are undeniably very vast.
On the account of the university qualifications of Meizoso, I think that
I am well informed about the circumstances in Argentina (where he first
qualified); I had been in touch over 30 years with another friend, Dr
Salomon Resnik and with many other Argentinean psychoanalysts, psychologists
and psychiatrists. Many found refuge in France during the military dictatorship.
The level of training dispensed at Buenos Aires match the French universities
and most of our Argentinean colleagues had no problem in being recognized
in equal terms in our professional circles.
Thanks for the consideration you may pay to my statement.
