Personal life[edit]

Loren Galler-Rabinowitz was born on January 19, 1986, in Boston, Massachusetts.[2] The eldest child of Janina Galler, a psychiatrist and neurologist, and Burton Rabinowitz, a cardiologist, she has twin sisters, Arielle and Danielle.[3] Her maternal grandparents, Eva and Henry Galler, were Polish Jews who survived the Holocaust and then lived in Sweden, where Janina was born, before moving to the United States.[3]

Galler-Rabinowitz played the piano from the age of ten months and won the Massachusetts state piano competition in the junior high division.[4] She graduated from The Park School and then from Buckingham Browne and Nichols School in Cambridge in 2004.

Medical career[edit]

After graduating from Harvard University in 2010,[5] she enrolled at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, pursuing an MD degree. In 2015, Galler-Rabinowitz graduated from medical school an Alpha Omega Alpha member.[6] In 2018, she completed an internal medicine residency at New York Presbyterian Columbia. In 2018, she began her fellowship in gastroenterology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York.[7]

In 2018, The New England Journal of Medicine published Dr. Rabinowitz's perspective piece, "Recognizing Blind Spots — A Remedy for Gender Bias in Medicine?"[8] In 2020, she was the first author of an article, "Addressing gender in gastroenterology: opportunities for change" that appeared in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.[9]

Ice dancing career[edit]

Galler-Rabinowitz began figure skating at the age of two and moved into ice dancing when she was nine.[10] She competed with partner David Mitchell from age 11 to 20. They were coached by Barret Brown, Tom Lescinski, and Karen Cullinan in Boston from 1998 to May 2004.[11]

Galler-Rabinowitz/Mitchell won the 1999 North American Novice Challenge Skate in Toronto, the 2000 U.S. Eastern Sectional Championships (Novice), the 2000 U.S. Championships (Novice), the 2002 Eastern Sectional Championships (Junior), and the 2002 U.S. Championships (Junior). They placed fourth overall at the 2003 World Junior Championships, winning their two compulsory dances. They won the pewter medal at the 2003 U.S. Championships (senior) and a bronze medal at the 2004 U.S. Championships,[12] a total of four national medals in four years.

In May 2004, Galler-Rabinowitz/Mitchell decided to relocate to Stamford, Connecticut, to train under Natalia Dubova.[11] In the 2004–05 season, they placed ninth at both of their Grand Prix events. In December 2004, Mitchell decide to undergo surgery to repair a grade two superior and anterior cartilage tear in the labrum of his left shoulder.[13] As a result, the dance team missed the 2005 U.S. Championships and returned to competition the following season.[14] They ended their partnership after placing ninth at the 2006 U.S. Championships.

In March 2011, the National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame awarded her the Marty Glickman Award, as the female Jewish Athlete of the Year.[15]
