(1/2🧵) In 2012, my dad was diagnosed with metastatic kidney cancer, when the median survival was ~1 year. Thanks to research–much of it conducted at @MSKCancerCenter–today, more than a decade later, he's stronger than ever.
Still can’t believe I matched at @MSKCancerCenter for hem/onc!!!!
Thank you to my family, friends, mentors, and @UmJmhIMRes for your endless support!
🇲🇽💪🏼
On this #NationalLatinoPhysicianDay, I’m specially grateful and proud to be a part of @umiamimedicine@UmJmhIMRes.
We need more initiatives like the Harrington program for Latin American and Caribbean IMGs by @UMIntlMedInst to increase that 6%!
