Val Nfonsam - The Doctor talks life, lessons and journey.

Описание: To describe Val Nfonsam as an over achiever would be too easy because he is much more than that. He is currently the Chair of Surgery at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia having moved there from a 2-year stint as Chair of Surgery in LSA, Louisiana. However, when he was in school in his home country of Cameroon, Central Africa, his main concern was getting to high school and university.
High school and undergraduate studies were in neighboring Nigeria before he landed in Chicago in the winter. Postgraduate study was followed by a decision to go to medical school. He was no sophisticate in that process but due to a combination of hard work, talent and some luck he landed in the University of Illinois.
Residency soon followed before he went to the University of Arizona in Tucson for 11 years. His ambition to lead a Department landed him in LSU for 2 years before his current position.
The LSU experience was challenging and mistakes were made and lessons learnt in what Val describes as part of life's journey.
