The article analyzes changes in health requests during the second half of the 19th century in the province of Santa Fe (Argentina), focusing on the way these requests construct social demand. Based on administrative files from various localities, we first register the diversity of actors who sought to heal outside of graduate medicine and their strategies to obtain authorization. Secondly, we focus on the representations and knowledge related to the understanding of disease by those who demanded health care. Finally, we analyze changes in their appeals to a provincial state under construction and the consequent building of citizenship.
