In this episode of Restitch America, host Alma Ohene-Opare welcomes Dr. Alvaro Ramos, retired U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander, White House medical officer, and founder of ALTUVAS Telehealth.
Born in the Philippines and raised in Guam, Dr. Ramos shares his powerful immigrant story — a journey from humble beginnings to serving two U.S. Presidents in the White House Medical Unit and later advising SEAL Team 7. His story is one of service, sacrifice, and steadfast belief in the promise of America.
Together, Alma and Dr. Ramos reflect on what it means to defend liberty beyond the battlefield — in medicine, mentorship, and moral courage. They also discuss the legacy of Charlie Kirk, the cultural urgency of defending the Constitution, and why complacency in prosperity is one of the greatest threats to freedom.
