Dr. Ala Stanford's Memoir Ready for Pre-Order
 
Dr. Ala Stanford, a national leader in health equity based in Philadelphia, is publishing a new memoir, "Take Care of Them Like My Own:  Faith, Fortitude, and a Surgeon's Fight for Health Justice" in August.  Dr. Stanford recently talked about her experience advocating for underserved populations during the Covid-19 pandemic in a presentation for the Penn's Village community.  
 
The book will be available at bookstores everywhere, but you can help Dr. Stanford in the world of Amazon by pre-ordering on the site if it's one you use.  Pre-orders are a way that Amazon judges how much to publicize current work.  If you are so inclined, you can order the book here:  https://www.amazon.com/Take-Care-Them-Like-Own/dp/1668004062.
