In this video, I had the opportunity to chat with Dr. Tatiana Cardenas, a General Trauma/Critical Care Surgeon about life as a trauma surgeon, why she chose to pursue this path, and advice for the budding general/trauma surgeons!

Dr. Cardenas was born in Houston, TX and raised in Miami, FL. She graduated from the University of Miami in 2005 with a B.S in Microbiology and Immunology. Having trained as dancer for most of her life, she took a leave of absence during her studies at the University of Miami to perform in NYC in the Broadway show '42nd Street: The Musical'. In 2007 she was accepted into Meharry Medical College School of Medicine and graduated in 2012 with her M.D as well as her M.S in Biomedical Sciences. During her matriculation at Meharry she received honors and awards including The Pfizer Minority Medical Scholarship and induction into Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. Outside of work she still enjoys dance, boating, traveling, being on the water, hot weather and Brazilian soccer. Currently, she is a trauma and critical care surgery fellow at UTHSCSA.
