Dr. Smith's Biography — Dr. Smith was born and raised near San Francisco where she cultivated a love for skiing and relaxing by the bay. She became a third generation Golden Bear, studying integrative biology and physiology at the University of California at Berkeley. After working for several years as a scribe in an inner city ED and volunteering as a science teacher in an underserved area, she moved east in pursuit of more snow and a graduate degree. She attended New York Medical College where she received her Master of Science in Physiology, with particular interest in cardiopulmonary and vascular physiology. She went on to stay at New York Medical College to receive her medical degree, and ultimately decided on a career in surgery after a summer internship in a trauma ICU, where it was evident that she could maximize the use of her background in physiology and cardiopulmonary interests. With surgery residency came a relocation to Long Island, and five years of training at Nassau University Medical Center, where she was exposed to a busy trauma and critical care service that she knew was her calling. Following residency, Dr. Smith was honored to train in fellowship for surgical critical care and trauma at UT Southwestern/Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas. While in Texas, she transitioned to the role of attending surgeon under the guidance of her mentors, acting as junior faculty in the department of trauma and critical care at Parkland.

Dr. Smith lives on Long Island where she finds tranquility relaxing on the water's edge, and eagerly awaits snowfall.

Dr. Kelly's Biography — As a young surgeon, my training and approach to care has always centered on a cohesive multimodal and multidisciplinary model of care. The body has systems which operate in conjunction with others and are not siloes unto themselves. Like these systems, it is my belief that medicine should be practiced in the same manner. Additionally, I strive to emphasize care focused on coordination that should be preemptive rather than reactive. Trauma, Critical Care and Burn Surgery encompasses a field that affects all ages of people, with an impact on life greater than cancer, heart disease and HIV combined. While the incidence of trauma has remained relatively unchanged since the 1970's despite the birth of a field medicine dedicated to its care, it is my belief that a study of evidence based medicine and clinical applicability of such data stands a chance at curbing the almost 200,000 lives lost to the disease annually. Through outreach, research, and a care model concentrated on trauma patients as well as their families and affected communities, I hope to curb the numbers of lives changed by trauma daily.
