“I always wanted to be a doctor…since I was a little girl,” said Dr. Obaid-Schmid. “When I was completing my residency training, I immediately chose to focus on trauma surgery. Every day, I have the opportunity to save a life. I just know this is where I belong in the healthcare field, and I’m so proud to lead the efforts for the largest trauma center in the San Gabriel Valley.”
