Dr. Rodney Garcia walks in two worlds — one of modern medicine and one of ancestral tradition. Of Cuban descent, he is a physician specializing in anesthesiology and critical care, whose healing approach also embraces integrative medicine, herbalism, and spiritual practice.

As the Founder of the Eagle and Condor Native Americas Church and a sanctioned Pachakuti Mesa ceremonialist, Rodney carries forward the ancestral traditions of the Andes and Amazon with reverence and devotion.

Stewarding land in Estancia, New Mexico, and in Mexico, Rodney and his partner grow organic food and open their home as a sanctuary for ceremony, healing, and visiting Elders. His life’s work is a prayer for balance — honoring the body as sacred, the Earth as living, and Spirit as the guiding force that unites them all.
