At 5, Arabia envisioned herself becoming a doctor. At 17, she became a teen mom to a baby boy, whose life was tragically taken away at four months. Her youngest sister was shot and killed while riding in a friend’s car just a few years later. Both tragedies caused her to persevere. She didn’t have any money for medical school. She studied at Hunter College. She was later awarded a scholarship to study medicine at the Latin American School of Medicine in Havana, Cuba. Nearly a decade later after graduating from Hunter College, completing medical school in Cuba, and learning to speak Spanish fluently, she completed her residency as an Emergency Medicine Resident Physician at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center. Dr. Arabia now has her own Podcast called "The Visit" where she uses her story to empower the community.
