I am proud to work with this gentleman few years ago whose dream is to become the first Black Deaf doctor.

[Health Signs Center @HealthSignsCtr]

Do you know any Black Deaf medical doctors? Emmanuel has never met one.

He explains how he became determined to be possibly the first Black Deaf physician & to show Black Deaf youth they can be doctors too.
