MEET OUR GUEST: Dr. Trevor Cabrera - The Nomadic Pediatrician  (https://thenomadicpediatrician.com/ab...) Born and raised in Roseville, California, he earned his Bachelor of Science degree (with a Minor in Health Care and Social Issues) from the University of California, San Diego. Driven by a love for languages and global exploration, he moved to Florence, Italy after college to earn his Certification in Teaching English as a Foreign Language. Trevor attended Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, where he earned his MD and cultivated a strong interest in Culinary Medicine—an emerging field focused on using food and nutrition as tools for improving health. He went on to complete his residency in General Pediatrics at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, where he was drawn to the high-stakes, emotionally complex environments of Pediatric Oncology, the Pediatric ICU, Emergency Medicine, and Neonatology. Unsure of which subspecialty to pursue, and eager to grow both personally and professionally, Trevor chose to work as a full-time Locum Tenens physician—a traveling doctor who steps into temporary roles across a variety of healthcare settings. This lifestyle allowed him to deepen his medical skills while exploring diverse approaches to pediatric care across the U.S. In 2023, Trevor returned to formal training to pursue a Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship, reaffirming his commitment to one of the most critical and rewarding fields within pediatrics. Through his ongoing journey, he shares insights and experiences on his blog as The Nomadic Pediatrician, blending storytelling, clinical wisdom, and a global perspective on modern medicine.
