Medical Careers for All

Shanita Viera believed she could be a brain surgeon one day, but being a doctor was something few kids in her block ever considered, until the staff at New York Presbyterian hospital volunteered to teach them. Just the prescription to pull a dream within reach. Don’t you wish people could see what we wish we could be.

“Those of us who know and work with Bob Dotson stand in awe of his gifts as a writer.  Like the work so many viewers have come to love on NBC, this collection of stories captivates and inspires.”

  • SAVANNAH GUTHRIE

“Throughout his remarkable career Bob Dotson has searched for the real essence of America – not by interviewing the so-called famous but by seeking out those unnoticed people we pass by every day.  Dotson is a national treasure for caring enough to listen.”
