商品簡介
The Dr. Milton D. Quigless, Sr. Story: A Memoir of Race, Medicine, and Purpose in the Segregated South
What does it take to turn an impossible dream into a lasting legacy?
As a teenager, Dr. Milton D. Quigless, Sr. had one dream: to become a doctor. But the odds were stacked against him. He was a fifth-grade dropout and struggled to pass key courses upon returning to school. He couldn't even afford college. To most, the dream of medical school seemed completely out of reach. But Dr. Quigless wasn't most people.
Despite poverty, racism, and segregation, he defied expectations to become a licensed physician. In an era when segregation denied Black patients access to proper healthcare, Dr. Quigless made the bold decision to build his own hospital in Tarboro, North Carolina-bringing hope and healing to his community. He became the first Black doctor in town to admit patients and perform surgeries in the local hospital. His medical skills gained him recognition throughout easter North Carolina and beyond.
This is more than a story of medicine-it's a powerful testament to courage, compassion, and a relentless drive to create change.
