Told by a unique voice in American medicine, this epic story recounts life-changing experiences in the career of a distinguished physician, and is described by The New York Times as āa true service [to history]. Dr. Reilly deserves a resounding bravo for telling it like it is.ā Malcolm Gladwell agrees: āBrendan Reilly has written a beautiful book about a forgotten subjectāwhat it means for a physician to truly care for a patient.ā
Every review of One Doctor noted its beautiful writing and compelling story, the riveting tension and suspense. āRemarkable with heart-pounding pace and dramaā ( Publishers Weekly ); āa gripping, moving memoirā (Abraham Verghese); āa terrific readā ( The Boston Globe ); āan astonishingly moving and incredibly personal account of a modern doctorā ( The Lancet ).
In compelling first-person prose, Dr. Brendan Reilly takes readers to the front lines of medicine today. Whipsawed by daily crises and frustraĀtions, Reilly must deal with several daunting challenges simultaneously. As Reillyās patients and their families survive close calls, struggle with heartrending decisions, and confront the limits of medicineās power to cure, One Doctor lays bare a fragmented, depersonalized, business-driven health care system where real caring is hard to find. Every day, Reilly sees patients who fall through the cracks and suffer harm because they lack one doctor who knows them well and relentlessly advocates for their best interests. Filled with fascinating characters in New York City and rural New Englandāpeople with dark secrets, mysterious illnesses, impossible dreams, and limitless courageā One Doctor tells their stories with sensitivity and empathy, reminding us of professional values once held dear by all physicians.
