    Dr. Eva Beaulieu was born in Haiti and knew at an early age she wanted to become a doctor. Her unbridled curiosity and rich heritage of healthcare professionals led her to Ross University School of Medicine. Success by accident is not Dr. Eva's Story. Her belief is that if she can achieve her dreams, every woman can. Although her path was different, she excelled in her classes and extracurricular activities. Following graduation, she interned at The Medical Center of Central Georgia, specializing in Internal Medicine. Time and time again, she has proven that it's hard work, determination, and faith that has allowed her to make each of her dreams come true.

      Paging Doctor You - Dr, Eva Beaulieu

      Prologue

      Breathe.

      Breathe, but not too fast, Eva. Stay focused. You’ve got this.

      Don’t let them see you sweat. Relax. Remember to attach the syringe. Advance slowly. Aspirate. Almost got it.

      Just a little bit more.

      There it is. Very good, Eva.

      Wait. Is it in there? Yes, you’ve got it.

      Remove the syringe and keep the needle still. Don’t forget to put your thumb over the end of the needle. Insert the wire; don’t force it. Keep your hand over the wire. Don’t let it move.

      Remove the needle. Make a nick in the skin where the wire enters the skin. Almost done. Just relax.

      You’ve got this. Don’t second guess yourself. Insert the dilator over the wire and push into the skin.

      Did it stop?

      Yes, that’s good.

      Now remove the dilator. Insert the line over the wire. Don’t let your hand slip. Slowly withdraw the wire back. Just a little bit more, you’re almost done.

      Can you see the wire tip?

      Not yet.

      Now, I see it.

      Withdraw the wire and clip the remaining port. Attach the line to the skin. Tie it.

      Not too tight. Clean.

      All done. Central line is done.

      So, You Want to Become a Doctor?

      I had no idea that one day I would write a book. I also had no idea that I would become a mother and a wife. Yet, I have always known that I would become a doctor. 

      Growing up, I was surrounded by doctors. Dad was a radiologist and Mom was a dermatologist who owned her own clinic. My dad’s brother was a radiologist. My mom’s brother was a cardiologist. My paternal Grandpa was a radiologist, and when he retired my dad and his brother took over his clinic. I grew up in a family of doctors.

      If there was no school, I would go to work with my mom. I watched her care for patients and run a business. I had firsthand knowledge of what it was like to earn a living by helping people. It was here that I watched her order supplies, deal with vendors and manage the payroll. In this same setting. I learned the challenges and rewards of owning your own medical practice.  Here, I watched her listen to patients, treat them for their ailments, and advise them about their health. 

       I don’t think there was a specific day or event that I said I would become a doctor. I think I always knew that I would grow up to save lives. I wasn’t pressured or forced to become a physician; it was an organic decision.  

      I’m sure that to many people it would seem that I had more opportunity than others to take the path to become a doctor. After all, I didn’t have to wait for career day at school to learn about the steps I’d need to take; I could just talk to almost anyone in my immediate family. However, as I started down my own journey, I’ve learned there are specific actions necessary to becoming a doctor. When I speak to students, I’m guaranteed that they’ll ask me what the process is to become a physician. I want to set them up for success. 

      I want students to know that for me, it hasn’t been an easy road. I’ve worked extremely hard to get to where I am today. There were no shortcuts.  No one said, Oh, your mom, dad, grandpa, and uncles were doctors, so we’ll let you pass.  No, I had to earn my place like everyone else. I labored relentlessly to accomplish my goals:  it was intense studying, countless volunteer hours, and long internships.

      Recently, a wonderful friend and colleague invited to me to attend a brunch. I went with no expectations, except maybe to get a good meal. After all, it was brunch. When I arrived, I noticed it was a room full of women—women doctors. These ladies represented every sector of the population – black, white, young, old, married, single, mothers, family physicians, hospitalists, surgeons, pediatricians, dermatologists, cardiologists, etc.  They all had one thing in common. Every woman there had overcome obstacles and earned the right to sit in that room with the honorable title of doctor. Each standing as a role model for the next girl who declares she wants to become a doctor and living proof that it could be done. Each one was standing in her own truth and showing that their paths may be different, but they weren’t impossible. Funny how I can barely remember the food, but I do remember feeling fulfilled.  Spiritually, that is.

       I want to inspire others to reach their goals. African American women make up 2% of doctors in the United States. I am proud to be a part of that 2%. I am proud that I persevered and pursued my dream.  I am Dr. Eva Beaulieu, and I save lives.

      In each chapter, I will talk about the steps I took to become a medical doctor and how those steps can prepare you for a successful career of your choice.

      1. The different types of Doctors and what they do. The medical field is growing fast as our population expands and ages at a rapid pace. There are numerous types of doctors. In this chapter, we will explore the different types of doctors, Ph.D., DNP, Medical doctors, etc. 

      2. Getting into a great college. I learned that if I wanted to get into a great college, I had to stay focused in high school.  High School may seem like a lot of repetitious work, but it is the foundation required before advancing to the next step of higher learning. Strive to make great grades and take advantage of every opportunity to make your transcript stand
