Now serving as the Inpatient Chief Resident in the University of Washington Internal Medicine Residency Program, Dr. Cabrera has remained connected to ElevateMeD throughout his journey.

“Good afternoon!
My name is Marin Cabrera and I am the current Inpatient Chief Resident at the University of Washington within the Internal Medicine Residency Program. I am excited to continue working with ElevateMeD, as I know how pivotal this program is for the development of underrepresented medical students like myself. I love this program and am proud to see the expansion of its network across the country!”
