Dr. Tambetta Ojong

Hi, I’m Dr. Tambetta Ojong.

I’m a board-certified family physician, fellowship-trained in maternal and women’s health, as well as a healthcare executive, educator, and advocate. I’ve dedicated my career to caring for underserved communities and advancing a more compassionate, equitable, whole-person approach to healthcare.

I’ve built my career within the Federally Qualified Health Center and safety-net healthcare space, serving in progressive clinical and leadership roles including Chief Medical Officer, Medical Director, and physician leader. My work spans value-based care, women’s health, physician well-being, medical education, and community health.

What Is Caught and Not Taught Post Residency

A Book Built Around Her Life's Work.

You finish residency and you get a badge. Nobody prepares you for what comes next. Metamorphosis is the guide Dr. Ojong went looking for in her first year as an attending. After nearly leaving medicine, she sat down with seven physicians to ask what had truly shaped them, and this book shares what she learned about imposter syndrome, building community, earning patients’ trust, and never believing you are the only one.
