Customer Reviews Rating: - Fantastic!
This book was a fairly easy read, I almost wish it was longer. The write made it easy for those of us without a medical background to follow along. A great insight into what it takes to become a Dr. I have more respect for Dr's after reading this novel.
Rating: - Honest encounter of residency years
It's a honest encounter of residency years of a Internal Medicine Physician. It's mostly like a diary of her years in residency.
AS a doctor I can see myself in her story and experience... Difficult to cope with other people sufferings and wonderful when you can help it...
Rating: - A great snapshot of the terrors and trials of residency
Dr.Transue does a great job of infusing her story with accuracy and gory details, but still keeps a very human approach and doesn't lose sight of her patients as people. This book is so interesting for anyone (and most of us hopefully have)who has been on either side of medical care to see both sides. It is a great book to help patients realize how human their doctors truly are and the enormous amount of stress their caretakers are under,and yet they still manage to have patience and grace under fire.
Rating: - Fabulous book!
I really enjoyed this in depth book about residency and the continued process to achieve the doctor status! Very well written and bright!
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in the medical field and those searching for info on the process of becoming a doctor!
