He was born in Los Ángeles, Chile, on 31 May 1929, the son of Antonio Werner Ringel and Olimpia Inostroza Contreras. On 11 June 1957, he married Marta Oliva Canales Andaur in Santiago, with whom he had six children.
Werner studied at the Liceo Alemán Verbo Divino and the Liceo de Hombres in Los Ángeles. He later attended the University of Concepción and the University of Chile, where he studied medicine, graduating as a Médico Cirujano (Surgeon) in 1956. He specialized in thoracic diseases.
He began working at the chair of Professor Orrego Puelma. Subsequently, he moved to Talca, where he served as a tuberculosis specialist at the Talca Hospital from 1961 to 1965. From 1969 onward, he became head of the service.
Werner joined the Christian Democratic Party, but resigned in 1967 due to what he perceived as the party’s shift to the left.
In 1965, he was elected Deputy for the 12th Departmental District (Talca, Lontué and Curepto), serving during the XLV Legislative Period (1965–1969).
