Meet Elizabeth Valdés 🩺

Her journey in healthcare began at just 19. At 22, she became a Registered Nurse, and at 27, a Nurse Practitioner. That same year, her desire to do even more for her patients led her to begin her journey in medicine.

Today, as she applies for residency, every chapter of her journey has helped shape the physician she hopes to become.

Wishing Elizabeth the very best throughout this Match season! May her dedication, experience, and unique journey open the doors to new opportunities.

We’re cheering for you, Elizabeth!

Celebrating research, dedication, and impact!

Congratulations to the members of our IMG Cuba Journey community whose work, “Shock Timing in STEMI-CS: Management and Outcomes in a Resource-Limited Setting,” has been published in JACC: Advances. 🫀

This multicenter study, based on data from four Cuban hospitals, provides valuable insight into cardiogenic shock complicating STEMI and the challenges of managing these patients in a resource-limited setting.

We are incredibly proud to see Cuban physicians contributing meaningful research to the global medical community.

Your work makes a difference. Your achievements inspire us all.

Together we rise.

STEP 2 CK — 231 🩺PASS!

Behind this number are months of sacrifice, long nights, self-doubt, and countless moments of choosing to keep going.

But today is a reminder for our entire IMG community: every step counts.

Whether you’re studying for Step 1, waiting for your Step 2 CK result, preparing your ERAS application, or getting ready for the Match, don’t give up on the dream just because the journey is taking longer than you imagined.

We celebrate one another’s wins because your success gives someone else hope that it’s possible.

Keep going, keep believing, and keep lifting each other up.
Together, we rise. 🇺🇸🩺
