Dr. Benjamin is thrilled to be back on the West Coast, as she am originally from San Diego, CA and has been in the mountains without fresh fish for too long! She was a women's volleyball player during her undergraduate years at Stanford University and then completed a Master's in Modern Human Anatomy prior starting to medical school at the University of Colorado. She is coming to Seattle with her partner, Connor (a Seattle native and incoming UW Internal Medicine intern) and jer two pups, Winnie and River! Outside the hospital, you can find them mountain biking, camping, or picnicking in the nearest park. She also loves to cook, bake, and bring friends and family together around good food, so she is look forward to summer BBQs and rainy day dinner parties with you all soon!
