In a small town in Florida, a tragic incident in February 1990 forever altered the trajectory of a young girl's life. At just 13 years old, Janette Nesheiwat encountered a horrific accident that claimed the life of her father, Ben Nesheiwat. As she reached for scissors in her father's bedroom, a fishing tackle box tipped over, dislodging a .380 caliber handgun that discharged and struck him in the head. The police labeled it a "freak accident," but for Janette and her family, it became a defining moment of trauma and resilience. The aftermath of that day spurred a deep-seated desire in Janette to pursue a career in medicine, driven by a need to save lives and alleviate suffering. As she reflects on her father's death, she often credits him with instilling in her a passion for healing and helping others. Now, she stands on the cusp of a remarkable chapter in her career, having been nominated by President-elect Donald J. Trump to become the next Surgeon General of the United States. Dr. Janette Nesheiwat's nomination is unconventional; she is a working urgent-care doctor rather than a public health official or renowned physician. Much of her career has been spent at CityMD, a chain of urgent care clinics in New York City, where she has become a familiar face during the Covid-19 pandemic, frequently appearing on Fox News as a medical contributor. With over 20,000 patients under her care related to the virus, her experience during this health crisis has cemented her reputation as a dedicated healthcare provider. The loss of her father shaped not only her career but also the strength and unity of her family. Raised alongside four siblings by their mother, Hayat, a pediatric nurse, they turned their father's tragedy into a platform for personal growth. Janette's memoir, “Beyond the Stethoscope: Miracles in Medicine,” highlights her journey toward becoming a physician, opening with a vivid recollection of the day of her father’s death. Throughout the book, she speaks of the trauma that has lingered, yet she often refrains from detailing the circumstances surrounding his demise, focusing instead on the overarching lessons learned and the strength derived from their mother's resolve. As she prepares for her potential new role, questions arise regarding how her personal experiences will influence her public health priorities. Dr. Vivek Murthy, the current Surgeon General, has emphasized the urgent public health crisis of firearm deaths, issuing advisories on gun violence. Whether Dr. Nesheiwat will address gun safety or share her story to underline the importance of this issue remains to be seen. Dr. Nesheiwat's family has shown remarkable resilience in the face of adversity. Despite their father's tragic death, they have forged successful careers — from law to military service and even the entertainment industry. Julia Nesheiwat, one of Janette's sisters, served as a homeland security adviser to Trump, while another sister, Jaclyn, married Scott Stapp, the lead singer of Creed. This familial strength and unity have been pivotal in transforming their collective grief into achievement. While Dr. Nesheiwat’s ascent in the medical field has not followed the traditional path, her story embodies the potential for personal tragedy to inspire a commitment to public service. Her journey from a small-town girl coping with profound loss to a prominent medical figure is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. As she prepares to take on the mantle of Surgeon General, many will be watching closely, eager to see how her past will inform her future in public health.
