New Release: This was one of those special projects for me. It was my privilege to narrate "No Apparent Distress," Rachel Pearson's thoughtful, frank, stunningly relevant memoir of a doctor coming of age in the American healthcare system. A truly great read, and, hopefully, a great listen!

In medical charts, the term “N.A.D.” (No Apparent Distress) is used for patients who appear stable. The phrase also aptly describes America’s medical system when it comes to treating the underprivileged. Medical students learn on the bodies of the poor—and the poor suffer from their mistakes.

In a free clinic where the motto is “All Are Welcome Here,” Pearson learns how to practice medicine with love and tenacity amidst the raging injustices of a system that favors the rich and the white. No Apparent Distress is at once an indictment of American health care and a deeply moving tale of one doctor’s coming-of-age.
