Dr. Agustin and Dr. Yamamoto moved to Guam in 2016 after their post graduate training in Massachusetts, USA. Through the years of practice in the island they established the first hybrid subspecialty center in Guam which is now known as Guam Lung and Infectious Disease Center (GLID Center). GLID’s first office was at the Guam Regional Medical City and has now expanded to GLID at FHP Health Center in Guam. 
On June 6, 2024, Senator Sabrina Perez presented Resolution 425-37 (COR) by the 37th Guam Legislature which recognizes the establishment of Guam’s first hybrid specialty center known as GLID, commending its efforts in providing comprehensive respiratory and infectious disease care for the island of Guam and the region.
