As we celebrate more trailblazers for Black History Month, VNA Health Group honors Dr. Herbert W.

He later joined the Association of American Medical Colleges, where he launched Project 3000 by 2000 to increase the enrollment of underrepresented minority students in medical schools and expanded mentoring opportunities for minority physicians.
