A Kentucky doctor is trading the hospital for the island as she competes in the latest season of the CBS hit “Survivor.” <\/p>\n

34-year-old Sharonda Cox is an OB-GYN resident who lives in Richmond. <\/p>\n

Cox is one of the contestants currently competing on Season 51 of the longest-running reality competition, where castaways compete in challenges, form alliances and vote each other out while trying to become the Sole Survivor. <\/p>\n

Cox told CBS that she plans to put her medical knowledge, tenacity and street smarts to the test. <\/p>\n

She said she has spent much of her life doing things for other people and now she wants to take on something new herself. <\/p>\n

“I’ve survived my entire life, and now it’s time for me to thrive,” she said. <\/p>\n

“Survivor” airs each Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET, and you can watch it on WLKY. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kentucky doctor competing on Season 51 of CBS’ ‘Survivor’ this fall LOUISVILLE, Ky. \u2014 A Kentucky doctor is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":861750,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[88,92],"class_list":["post-861749","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861749","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=861749"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861749\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/861750"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=861749"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=861749"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=861749"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
