Today he is known as Dr. Q, an internationally renowned neurosurgeon and neuroscientist who leads cutting-edge research to cure brain cancer. But not too long ago, he was Freddy, a 19-year-old undocumented migrant worker toiling in the tomato fields of Central California.

In this gripping memoir, Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa tells his amazing life story - from his impoverished childhood in the tiny village of Palaco, Mexico, to his harrowing border crossing and his transformation from illegal immigrant to American citizen and gifted student at the University of California at Berkeley and at Harvard Medical School. Packed with adventure and adversity - including a few terrifying brushes with death - Becoming Dr. Q is a testament to persistence, hard work, the power of hope and imagination, and the pursuit of excellence. It's also a story about the importance of family, of mentors, and of giving people a chance.

The story of his life is full of surprises. His positive outlook is inspiring. He is a remarkable person. It's reassuring to know that there are still some doctors who care about the patient's. A great read.
He lovingly talks about his wife and family. I couldn't help wishing that his wife had written a book regarding what it's like to be married to a student of neuroscience and of course later a surgeon. She seems like she is a wonderful wife.

Dr. Q's Enthusiasm is Contagious
