Meet Dr. Kevin Sanchez! Kevin is one of our interns and was born in Mexico City and grew up in Oregon. Right now, Kevin is interested in trauma surgery. His advice to those applying to general surgery is to dream big, stay humble, and remember that anything is possible!

This speaks to the hyperspecialization of medicine. I went to a residency program that prioritized training “general” ophthalmologists. The goal was to make you competent practicing right out the gate. If you wanted to do a fellowship, great, but it was not the expectation.
