Publisher's summary

In his autobiography, emergency medicine physician Dr. Derek J. Robinson recounts his upbringing in an unconventional African American family in Shreveport, LA, where the path to college, let alone medical school, was wrought with the barriers of prejudice, loss, doubt, and low societal expectations. With the love of family and friends, the help of dedicated mentors who saw the extraordinary in him and his own self-determination, Dr. Robinson defied the odds, becoming a celebrated Chicago-based physician, healthcare executive, dedicated husband and father of two, and passionate community servant. Improbable MD tracks the real-life trajectory of Dr. Robinson’s life, offering inspiration and a pathway to success for those who aspire to do more.

Must listen

After reading the book and being moved by the author, I wanted a second dose and decided to download it. I love this book even more after listening to it. Dr. Robinson guides you through his humble beginnings and vividly describes what can happen when you are guided and mentored.
