Twenty years ago, he teamed up with childhood friends George Jenkins and Sampson Davis to form The Three Doctors, which has a mission to inspire, mentor and motivate youth. Together, the medical doctors work together to showcase the importance of healthy lifestyles, positive leadership and education.“I don’t know how we thought we could even start a foundation. But it was important for us to do it because we realized a lot of the things that we didn’t have when we were growing up. We wanted to make sure that we were able to provide [opportunities] for kids who grew up in neighborhoods like ours.”
