Florida Surgeon General Joesph Ladapo acted quickly and saved a man’s life after he collapsed on the grounds of the state Capitol in Tallahassee on Tuesday morning.
Willie James Davis Jr., 57, was attending a children’s event at the Capitol Courtyard when he suffered a cardiac event, according to Orlando’s News 13.
Ladapo happened to be nearby and jumped into action, according to the TV station, citing an incident report.
The state’s top doctor immediately went to work, performing chest compressions and using a defibrillator to stabilize Davis.
Davis was eventually taken to a nearby hospital and survived. According to first responders, Ladapo’s actions most likely saved the man’s life.
The incident was discussed by both men with the outlet.
“I’m grateful I was at the right place at the right time,” Ladapo said of his actions. “I love being a doctor, and I especially appreciate times when my experience makes a difference.”
Davis thanked the surgeon general, whom he called an “angel,” after the pair reunited at the hospital.

“A perfect stranger made a decision to give aid and saved my life,” he said. “I believe he already has his wings. Again, I thank God for the blessing of continued life and the angel he sent me.”

“We know we can count on @FLSurgeonGen Joe Ladapo to protect Floridians against medical authoritarianism and Faucist decrees, and we can also count on him to spring into action and save lives in real time,” the governor wrote.
“Great job, Dr. Ladapo!” he added.

Ladapo was one of the few doctors to publicly question the dominant narratives about the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020.
DeSantis appointed Florida’s surgeon general, who was born in Nigeria and graduated from Harvard Medical School, in September 2021.

Ok, I do not mean to switch topics too much but if you haven’t noticed—there is a highly woke agenda being promoted everywhere.
This woke agenda is being promoted not only on television but also in movies. However, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Even the stores that we shop at are funding the very liberal, commie, woke agendas that we are doing our best to rail against.
We need to stop funding these woke companies and I have an amazing alternative for you.
The only “catch”?
It’s only by referral.
Good thing you know someone that can refer you and that is me.
So, click this link and I can send you some information on shopping with an American-made, patriot-owned store that also has grass-fed beef.s
No antibiotics, steroids, or junk either.
It is time that we start supporting American companies and stop feeding the globalist woke agenda >>>https://tinyurl.com/23ctzwky
