Newburyport, Massachusetts - Undergraduate students with dreams of becoming doctors now have a new opportunity to jumpstart their journey, thanks to the launch of the Dr. Guy Navarra Scholarship for Future Doctors. This $1,000 scholarship recognizes and supports one outstanding student preparing to enter the medical field—someone whose vision, heart, and dedication echo the values of its founder, Dr. Guy Navarra.
The scholarship, now accepting applications, is designed for U.S.-based undergraduate students pursuing careers in medicine, pre-medical studies, or related health sciences. With the growing need for committed, forward-thinking professionals in healthcare, Dr. Guy Navarra aims to reward a student who not only excels academically but also holds a strong purpose for making an impact in tomorrow’s healthcare system.
To apply, students must submit a personal essay (500–800 words) in response to the following prompt:
“What inspires your journey into medicine, and how do you envision making a meaningful impact on the healthcare system of tomorrow?”
Essays will be judged on clarity, authenticity, creativity, and alignment with the mission of Dr. Navarra’s scholarship: to cultivate leadership, empathy, and transformation in the next generation of doctors.
Dr. Guy Navarra brings a wealth of knowledge and inspiration to this initiative. With over 25 years of experience in internal medicine, geriatrics, and obesity medicine, he has held roles in clinical care, academic research, hospital leadership, and executive strategy. A graduate of Madrid’s Complutense University, and later Yale and Harvard, Dr. Guy Navarra exemplifies what it means to blend global education with patient-centered care. His commitment to preventative medicine and ethical innovation has shaped programs, improved lives, and helped bridge gaps in the healthcare system.
Currently serving as primary care physician for the Greater Newburyport area and Chief Medical Officer for MetTrimMD, Dr. Guy Navarra continues to lead by example—pioneering patient-first approaches to metabolic health and chronic disease management. Through this scholarship, he now turns his focus to supporting students who are following in his footsteps.
“The future of medicine depends not just on knowledge, but on heart and vision,” says Dr. Guy Navarra. “This scholarship is a way to honor students who are already showing signs of leadership, passion, and the ability to think critically about where healthcare is headed.”
