Guntersville, AL, February 23, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Sebastian C. Tapia, MD, who is board-certified by the American Academy of Family Physicians and is a fellow diplomate of the American Academy of Family Practice, practicing medicine for thirty-four years, has completed his new book, “My Improbable Journey”: a brilliant autobiographical account that chronicles the author’s journey from a child in Bolivia to becoming a doctor in America.
Author Sebastian C. Tapia, MD graduated from Colegio Bolivar in Oruro, Bolivia, with a major in biology and chemistry. He received his medical degree from Universidad San Andres Medical School in La Paz, Bolivia. He earned the United States Medical Licensure Examiners three-step certificates for foreign medical graduates and completed a rotating internship at Methodist Hospital in Gary, Indiana. His residency was in general surgery at Maimonides Medical Center Brooklyn, New York, as well as in family practice in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
“‘My Improbable Journey’ is a personal story of perseverance, of unflinching love for family, and of unrelenting desire to rescue the family from their destiny,” writes Dr. Tapia. “This chronicles the life of an eight-year-old boy living in the remote and desolate tin-mining town high in the Bolivian Andes in the 1950s. His only window to the outside world were magazine publications, shortwave radio, and what he learned in school.
“Then he suddenly suffers a fortuitous childhood accident that sends him to the local hospital for two months. It is during this time he discovers a completely new world, a fascinating world of medicine that, unbeknownst to him, shaped his future forever. From that point on, he plotted in his mind his path to achieve the lofty goal of becoming a medical doctor.”
