About
Gabriela Yao-Cohen
"I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. Growing up I spent time in my father’s medical practice where I witnessed firsthand the importance of primary care. At the time, I did not know that I wanted to be a doctor and was initially drawn to environmental conservation based upon my love for the outdoors. While majoring in Ecology and Forestry at UC Berkeley and working in the environmental field after college, I could not shake the feeling that something was missing. Seeking deeper connections with the individuals and community that I was serving, I decided to explore the health care and medical field. Prior to beginning medical school, I volunteered with a mobile health van to provide basic primary care for the homeless of San Francisco and served as an AmeriCorps member with LifeLong Medical Care, a network of Federally Qualified Health Centers in the East Bay. Both of these opportunities allowed me to listen and learn from those individuals who struggle to access necessary health care on a daily basis. I attended medical school at Temple University, the safety-net hospital committed to providing care to the severely underserved population of North Philadelphia. I feel fortunate to have learned and trained in a hospital with a strong commitment to community engagement and service, allowing me to further develop my passion for providing high quality care to patients in need. I cannot wait to join the Swedish First Hill family to continue to learn from wonderful patients and compassionate, caring physicians. During undergrad, I had the pleasure of spending a quarter in the San Juan Islands where I absolutely fell in love with the Pacific Northwest. I am thrilled to finally be able to call Seattle home. Outside of work, you can find me hiking, scuba diving, frequenting my local farmers market, rooting for the Warriors (Go Dubs!), reading Reese Witherspoon’s latest book club rec, and posing as a cheese and ice cream connoisseur.
