An epic story told by a unique voice in American medicine, One Doctor describes life-changing experiences in the career of a distinguished physician.
An epic story told by a unique voice in AmeriĀcan medicine, One Doctor describes life-changing experiences in the career of a distinguished physiĀcian. In riveting first-person prose, Dr. Brendan Reilly takes us to the front lines of medicine today. Whipsawed by daily crises and frustraĀtions, Reilly must deal with several daunting challenges simultaneously: the extraordinary patients under his care on the teeming wards of a renowned teaching hospital; the life-threatening illnesses of both of his ninety-year-old parents; and the tragic memory of a cold case from long ago that haunts him still. 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, depersonalĀized, 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, imposĀsible dreams, and many kinds of courageāOne Doctor tells their stories with sensitivity and empathy, reminding us of professional values once held dear by all physicians. But medicine has changed enormously during Reillyās career, for both better and worse, and One Doctor is a cautionary tale about those changes. It is also a hopeful, inspiring account of medicineās potenĀtial to improve peopleās lives, Reillyās quest to understand the ātruthā about doctoring, and a moving testament to the difference one doctor can make.
