BACKGROUND
Dr. Wellen has served in our City for the majority of his 40-year practice. During that time,
he has helped thousands of patients. He is always accessible, deeply interested in the
City of Aventura, an advocate for all of those he cares for, and a terrific support to those
in need of his services. Dr. Wellen is a fixture at the Aventura Hospital. He is referred to
as "the Angel of Healthcare" because of his deep concern for those he serves. His
humility, intelligence, and love of life all exemplify the best in the profession he chose long
ago.
