The business of medicine is a complex mix of thorns and roses - where the reality of profit-driven priorities from corporations and insurance companies clashes with the compassion of clinicians providing care at great personal cost.
Through the perspectives of patients, physicians, clinicians, medical students, and nurses, The Making of a Doctor highlights the challenges faced by both patients and healthcare providers. This collection of essays uncovers pivotal moments- from the denial of essential medical care by insurance companies to the emotional toll that this work has had on clinicians, some of whom have considered leaving medicine due to the pressures they face - to demonstrate the dire state of our medical systems.
