CHAPTER VIII For the nonce I will take leave of those tangled and difficult problems, which I am at a loss to solve, and in the face of which I must confess utter helplessness. I will now occupy myself with a question to which but one answer is possible, and that a perfectly straight one. It deals with gross and entirely conscious disregard for that consideration which is due to the human being. I approach the subject with regret, but it is impossible to pass it by. "A certain Dr Koch," we read in the Russian medical paper, Physician, "has published a pamphlet, entitled, ' Aerztliche Versuche an labenden Menschen' (' Medical Experiments on Living Man '), than which nothing were better calculated to further undermine the respect for, and confidence of the laity in, our profession. The author essays to prove that 'vivisection has long crossed the thresholds of our hospitals'--in other words, that experiments similar to those conducted upon the lower animals in the laboratory, are practised on living man in our infirmaries. As might have been expected, Koch's book was immediately seized upon by different feuilleton writers and newspapers chroniclers. It were highly desirable that our German colleagues should not leave a single one of Dr Koch's 'facts' without searching inquiry and explanation, as it is only possible by this means to nullify the effect of his book." (See The Physician, 1893, P-906.) 103 I have not read the above-mentioned pamphlet, and do not know how far the " facts" mentioned by Dr Koch merit the ironical inverted commas which the editor of the Physician had seen fit to place them in. But unfortunately there is much substantial truth even in the title of Dr Koch's booklet alone. In proof of the above it would be easy enough...

Though his childhood is tumultuous and often lonely, he finds love and acceptance in his new home and Sean grows up to become a very successful physician. But Sean lives a secret life.

Mr. King scratched his head and said, "Gee I just don't know, I've just about used up all the names I can think of." He glanced up at a sign that read, "No Smoking." "That's it," he says, "I'll name him Nosmo--Nosmo King."

Download or read book Medical Catastrophe written by Ronald W. Dworkin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unnecessary death rarely happens at the hands of doctors, but it does happen. Sometimes the cause is medical error. But sometimes the cause is politics. The issues underlying many medical catastrophes are numerous: a power struggle between providers, uncertainty over who’s in charge, hesitation to practice good medicine for fear of being fired, specialization run amok, part-time doctoring. Doctors often prefer to ignore the problems, but patient safety demands that they be aired. And so does the future of the medical profession. Beneath the politics lies confusion: Doctors no longer know who they are. They don’t know how much authority they should wield. They don’t know what distinguishes them from other healthcare professionals. They don’t what about being a doctor should make them proud. When doctors lack a firm sense of who they are, the whole of medicine lacks an essential core, giving rise to personal and professional politics—and catastrophes. Patients may be relying on a system that has veered off course. In dramatic and revealing stories of patients in the operating room and interactions with colleagues, Ronald W. Dworkin traces his path from medical school to anesthesiology residency to his early years in private practice, with the experiences of his father and grandfather, also doctors, hovering overhead, in his quest to answer the question: What is a Doctor? Sometimes funny, sometimes scary, sometimes poignant, the story of what it means to be a doctor in today’s medical setting comes to life, as Dworkin outlines the contours, the challenges and rewards, of modern medicine, and how it must be rescued in order to preserve the profession and protect patients from disasters.

Download or read book Confessions of an American Doctor written by Max Kepler and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, I was arrested by agents from both the US Postal Service and the Food and Drug Administration for the importation of illegal human growth hormone and botulinum toxin (Botox) from China. At the time of my arrest, I was a thirty-seven year old Harvard graduate with medical and post-doctoral degrees. I attended one of the finest residency and fellowship training programs in the world at the University of California, San Francisco. I played two sports in college, earned awards at every level of education and training, had wonderful friends and a beautiful three-year-old daughter. Having grown up the son of a restaurant manager and a housewife, I had transcended the humble beginnings of a small Midwestern town to become the quintessential American Dream.Or so I thought. But with my arrest on felony importation charges, everything I had worked so hard for was swept away and the entire trajectory of my life was indelibly altered. I would embark on a three year battle not only for my medical license, but also for my freedom. This journey would lead to intense personal introspection, and in that process, I would discover with ugliness, there was also beauty, and with punishment, mercy. There are many reasons I have written this manuscript, with one of the most important being that I hoped my story would resonate with others who have gone through difficult circumstances as a consequence of a dark side of their personality. With this book, I hope to inspire others to accept and embrace the good and bad, while continually striving for improved self-understanding and acceptance.I have changed names primarily for legal purposes, but the facts are unchanged. Although the events described in the book occurred more than ten years ago, I think about them nearly every day. The shame and humiliation are ever-present. Any simple Google search of my name reveals the truth, and that truth has affected me over and over, despite the years, as it probably should. As the judge told me that day in a federal courtroom, "You have betrayed the public's trust." This is my confessional.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Doctor's Confession It has been the author's intention to present facts and relate incidents with a view to promoting a better understand ing between the physician and the laity, as well as to furnish entertainment and amusement for the general reader. A greater degree of justice would obtain if the people had a more accurate knowledge of what may reasonably be expected of the physician. It should be understood that there are some things about human ailments and their' cure that' the medical profession know, and some things they do not know; but the training of the masses has been such as to make it detrimental to a physician's reputation and business if he acknowledge ignorance concerning a case he may have under his care. This puts the honest, though well qualified physi eian, at a disadvantage and encourages deception. Advice is sometimes worth more than medicine, and very often is all that is necessary. The wonderful advancement that has been made in medi cal science during the last two decades should be seconded by increased enlightenment of the laity in their relations to the medical profession.

Download or read book Confessions of a Christian Physician written by Raymond West and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's a Doctor who can write. Ray West, a self-confessed "understudy of the Great healer, Jesus Christ" chronicles in CONFESSIONS Incidents from three or more decades of medical practice. In a chatty style reminiscent of James Herriot's vignettes based on his veterinary practice, West introduces graphic events revealing the underside as well as the drama of interacting with patients, their family members and colleagues. Edna Maye Loveless, Esteemed Author and Educator Dr. Raymond West, a master storyteller and model of the ideal Family Physician (as well as teacher and researcher of Epidemiology) describes highlights of his career applying the basic principles of both science and art of medical practice. Examples of encounters from his years of successful caring for the emotional and spiritual as well as physical needs of patients, demonstrate for the reader, memorable examples of principles applicable to real life. Whether you are a medical care provider or a patient, you will love the stories and benefit from the inspiration of a Christ centered approach to the practice of medicine. Edwin H. Krick, MD, MPH., Associate professor of Medicine, Loma Linda University Doctor Raymond West's 'Confessions' is interesting in showing a Christian Doctor's life and temptations. He was one of returning sailors from WW2 who was given the opportunity, by a grateful government, to a medical profession previously limited mainly to the wealthy. This "GI surge" was responsibly, in great part, to a rapid technological progress in medicine. Dr. West's book reveals how this new technology has become a substitute for detailed questioning and manual examination of patients! He shows how a careful examination plus a knowledge of historical medicine is useful in diagnosis. His lifelong keeping of a detailed diary of interesting cases makes Dr. West and this book remarkable. I recommend it highly. Bernarr Johnson, MD, FACS
