Elizabeth O. Ofili

Country of origin: Nigeria

Because she had trained overseas, when Elizabeth Ofili, M.B.B.S., first came to the United States from Nigeria in 1982, she had to work especially hard to receive the proper recognition she deserved. Today, she is a professor of medicine, chief of cardiology, and director and principle investigator of the Clinical Research Center at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia.

  1. The last three people you've posted have basically all had the same name. I think immigration laws should be changed to let in any person with any form of the name Elizabeth with no fuss.
