Cristina Yang was born to Helen Rubenstein and her unnamed husband. Her father died in a car accident when Cristina was 3 years old, probably inspiring her to become a surgeon. Her mother remarried to Saul Rubenstein, with whom she raised Cristina. After graduating from medical school, Cristina did her internship and subsequent residency at Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital where she became best friends with Meredith Grey. When she completed her residency, she took a fellowship at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, but eventually returned to Seattle. Cristina recently divorced from Owen Hunt, but they're still in a relationship together.
