🌟 Happy National Latino Physician Day to some of our favorite Physicians! 🌟
On October 1st, we join the nation in honoring the incredible contributions of Latino/a physicians — and we’re proud to say that here at UNC Hematology/Oncology, Latino representation isn’t just a talking point, it’s part of who we are.
This year, we celebrate Dr. Murray, Dr. Corria, Dr. Peña, Dr. Boyle, and Dr. Martínez — outstanding Latino Hematology/Oncology physicians whose dedication to patient care, research, mentorship, and community impact strengthens our program every single day.
While Latinos represent nearly 20% of the U.S. population, they make up fewer than 6% of physicians nationwide. At UNC, we are proud to be building something different. The presence of so many talented Latino/a hematologists and oncologists in our program creates a unique and inspiring environment for trainees, colleagues, and patients alike.
To our Latino Heme Onc family: ¡Felicidades y gracias por inspirarnos!
