Raymatti grew up in a very impoverished family in Guyana but through hard work and a lot of commitment won a scholarship to study medicine in St. Petersburg, Russia. After finishing medical school and fulfilling her commitment to the Government of Guyana, Raymatti headed to St. Lucia for several years to continue her work as an emergency room physician. In 2003, she joined her family, who had left Guyana, in the U.S. She brought Cookie, her beloved dog, with her to the States. Raymatti is currently a hospitalist in Denver.
