It’s hard to describe exactly what Dr. Stephen Foster is. Dr. Foster is a general surgeon, urologist, infectious disease doctor, entrepreneur, and missionary who has spent his career working in Angola. We caught up with Dr. Foster to talk about his life working in Angola and really to explore his thoughts on empowering non-MD providers to provide life-saving care. Dr. Foster has a fascinating biography called “The Benefit of Steel: The Life and Times of Steve Foster.” For us, the conversation with Dr. Foster has reminded us of the huge inequities that exist in the world, but also the tremendous effort of folks like Dr. Foster to make the world a better, more humane place.
If you want to get in contact with Dr. Foster to support his foundation, you can find his email in our show notes.
