Boston City Councilor Henry Santana has been released from the hospital after an extended stay, he announced Monday.

Santana was discharged Sunday from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, where he spent 11 days. He is expecting to return to work at City Hall next week.

“While I still have a few follow-up appointments and outpatient testing ahead, I am feeling stronger each day and remain on track to return to the Boston City Council for our regular meeting on August 5,” Santana said in a statement.

Santana announced last week that he was hospitalized for an unspecified health condition. He spent time at the Brigham’s Shapiro Cardiovascular Center after facing “persistent and unresolved health issues” earlier this summer.

The 30-year-old Santana is an at-large councilor who was first elected in 2023. He won reelection last year. 

Santana said he is still working toward a full recovery, despite leaving the hospital.

“Although my recovery will continue over the coming weeks, I feel energized, optimistic, and excited to return to the work our communities have entrusted me to do,” he said.

Santana’s health issues became public knowledge shortly after one of his colleagues, Councilor Julia Mejia, suffered a medical emergency during a meeting.

Mejia attributed the episode to “dehydration and exhaustion” and returned to the council chambers last week wearing a heart monitor. Mejia stressed that she does not have a heart condition.
