The more you listen to Hector Caraballo M.D., Amherst College Class of ’94, the less you’ll believe in coincidences. In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- His extraordinary single mother and the heart-to-heart conversation she had with Hector that resulted in him applying to medical school
- The harrowing event that nearly prevented him from attending a med school admissions interview – and how he earned acceptance to that program
- How he discovered that (in his modest words) he didn’t suck at emergency medicine, drawing upon his upbringing in the Bronx to embrace the chaos that’s prevalent in ERs
- The bargain he made with his wife that resulted in moving from New York City to San Antonio
- His path from practicing medicine to serving as Chief Medical Officer of MedCognition, a leader in augmented reality, ultra-portable, clinically intuitive medical simulation
- The three people in the Amherst Class of ’94 Hector that wants me to talk to next
