Produktinformationen "Still Healing"
The American view of doctors vacillates between seeing them as heroes with hearts of gold and nerves of steel and disparaging them as arrogant, callous, and careless. The truth lies between: Doctors are human beings with professional training that, at best, allows them to heal people and, at worst, to harm or even hasten death. Rosalind Kaplan, a general internist, chose medicine as her career 35 years ago because she found the idea of life learning, a community of like-minded colleagues, and the ability to help others captivating. She imagined a life where she used her knowledge of science and technology to improve people's health. But sadly, "being a doctor isn't often about doctoring." With vulnerability and humor, Kaplan gives a glimpse into the world of a doctor and an honest and sometimes searing view of our healthcare system. Still Healing, a memoir in essays, explores Kaplan's physician war stories and traumas from medical school, residency, and private practice and reflects the complicated realm of medical training, practice, and culture
