Publisher's summary

There are many books about overcoming obstacles, but this quintessential story of victory over limitations is unique. How many doctors have cerebral palsy? Not many. Yet this disability was part of the Great Physician's plan for Tyler Sexton. Because of it, Tyler has become a role model for others facing adversity, including his patients. He has also become a humble healer who uses his heart and faith along with his intellect and training to help kids and give them hope.

Tyler's story has been featured on ABC's 20/20 and was the basis for many episodes of ABC's new show The Good Doctor. This is a story of a man who says, "I'd rather walk with a limp in Christ than with a strut in the world"; who wears superhero T-shirts and tells his little patients they're "super", too, despite their physical problems; and whose stint at a medical school in the Caribbean completely erased the islanders' negative view of disability. Through this inspiring true story, people will be encouraged to face adversity with hope, determination, and the strength of Christ.

Amazingly Powerful!

This book was so beautifully written and as a mother of a child with CP I can not thank you enough for writing it. I hope one day my son has a chance to meet Dr. Sexton! It would be a great honor and blessing.

A struggle to finish

I purchased this because I have a specific interest in physicians with disabilities and I am always searching for resources to provide to those I mentor in similar circumstances that can serve as an example.

I am struggling to finish this. It’s not that the back story isn’t interesting, but this has been an extremely slow, laborious start with side stories that surround the real issues. There isn’t much inflection or emotion for a story that has significant highs and lows.

I’m not fond of the writing style and the use of changed language when trying to elicit an emotional response - regular language can adequately bring about such a response.
