“I became a family medicine physician because I wanted to not just be a clinician but an advocate, counselor, and information source for my patients,” Dr. Zuniga says. “I want to be there for my patients across the entire frame of a lifetime.”

Dr. Zuniga received a Bachelor of Science in general biology from California State University in Long Beach, Calif., and her medical degree from Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara in Jalisco, Mexico. She completed her family medicine residency at Williamsport Regional Medical Center, part of Susquehanna Health, in Williamsport, Pa.
