Name: Mark Salama, MD

Hometown: Rancho Cucamonga, California

Undergraduate School: Nova Southeastern University

About me: I was born in Cairo, Egypt and then I moved to California with my family around the age of three. After attending college in Florida and medical school in Grenada, I grew to love traveling and going to the beach. My family is a huge part of my life and I enjoy spending time with them whenever I can. I am also huge Lakers fan and enjoy all sports. 

Academic Highlight: Receiving my MD the same week that I matched at Eisenhower.

Why Eisenhower Medical Center: Eisenhower Medical Center provides a unique residency experience with its location in the Coachella Valley and diverse patient population. It also provides top of the line clinical exposure, facilities, and teaching. Being around the residents and attendings prior to matching really revealed to me the sense of camaraderie and friendship at this hospital.
