L. D. Britt, MD, MPH is renowned for his work as an distinguished educator and a surgeon. He is also known in the community for his generosity as a philanthropist; and donates his time to many organizations, including the Norfolk Forum, the Boy Scouts of America, the Rotary Club, WHRO, and the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. While reflecting on Dr. Britt’s work as a public servant, it is fitting to recognize others in our community who do the same.
