Description

On the Border of a Dream is an eye­-opening and uplifting autobiography that tells the true story of a boy from rural Mexico, who at a young age sets his mind to becoming a surgeon in the USA. This memoir follows Edgar Hernandez from his tight-knit family in Mexico through his journeys to the USA. On the Border of a Dream offers an intimate glimpse into the first-hand experience of immigration: the challenges, triumphs, and never-ending hard work, integrity, and determination to succeed. Ultimately, this is an inspiring story of an remarkable and talented immigrant seeking his place in America who achieves his dream of becoming a renowned surgeon.

Author Biography:

For over 20 years, Dr. Hernandez has practiced general surgery and has now dedicated himself to the field of breast surgery. Dr. Hernandez graduated from Arizona State University with a dual Bachelor & Masters degree and received his medical degree from the University of Utah. He is a diplomate of the American Board of Surgery, a fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a practicing oncoplastic breast surgeon. Dr. Hernandez was named "Man of the Year," a humanitarian distinction by Fresh Start Women's Foundation of Arizona for his treatment of uninsured women. In addition to being a proud husband and father, he is now a happy grandfather of six granddaughters.
