Yahye Samatar, DO
Resident Physician
My specialties:
- Internal medicine
Professional interests:
- Medical oncology and hematology
Practice philosophy: Embracing the osteopathic principle of whole body healing, I aspire to treat each patient holistically, viewing them not merely as a diagnosis but as a unique human being with diverse values and needs.
What are you passionate about and why? My passion is medical oncology because it is a constantly evolving field based on the latest evidence-based treatments. I am driven by the opportunity to support individuals during one of the most challenging periods of their lives, offering compassionate care.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? A deep sea fisherman.
What are you most proud of? Graduating medical school.
What are a few of your personal achievements?
First in my family to attend college and first to become a doctor.
