Sarah Withycombe
Education: The University of Texas at Austin, The University of Texas Medical Branch and Baylor College of Medicine Pediatrics residency
Specialty: Pediatrics
Why did I choose this career?
I decided to become a physician because I love learning, interacting with children, and have always had a love for science. Pediatrics is my specialty, but I’m also very interested in endocrinology and weight management.
What do I do at AMBOSS and why is it important?
Here at AMBOSS, I’m a junior medical editor, which means I consolidate the latest research and guidelines into something more manageable for busy residents and clinicians on the wards. As a doctor, it’s important to understand when you don’t know something and I enjoy creating content that helps doctors find accurate information quickly, in order to take care of their patients and decrease their own stress levels.
What do I do outside of work?
Outside of my professional life, I love to read (my favorite book is Les Misérables), meet new people and see the world through my children’s eyes –– being a mom is my biggest achievement.

Why did I choose this career?
I love practicing the full scope of inpatient/outpatient internal medicine, and so picking a favorite area is difficult. Other than making my Jewish mother happy, my biggest achievement as a doctor is the seven years I spent living and working in Botswana, making a difference in the lives of both patients and medical trainees.
