This riveting collection of true stories from Dr. Martina Scholtens is filled with hope and humor, and together make up a deeply moving portrait of how one doctor attempts to provide quality care and advocacy for patients while remaining culturally sensitive, even as she wrestles with guilt, awareness of her own privilege, the faith she was raised with, and vicarious trauma after hearing countless stories of suffering.

Dr. Umes ist Herzchirurg, erfolgreicher Autor, engagiertes Mitglied der deutschen Gesellschaft - und dunkelhäutig.
