Book excerpt: The Doctor's Dilemma by Hesba Stretton is about the mystery of Olivia's life. Olivia is a runaway and otherwise a stranger to a kind widower and his deaf mother. They must piece together Olivia's past and find out who she is – and what she may have done. Excerpt: "I think I was as nearly mad as I could be; nearer madness, I believe, than I shall ever be again, thank God! Three weeks of it had driven me to the very verge of desperation. I cannot say here what had brought me to this pass, for I do not know into whose hands these pages may fall; but I had made up my mind to persist in a certain line of conduct which I firmly believed to be right, while those who had authority over me and were stronger than I was, were resolutely bent upon making me submit to their will. The conflict had been going on, more or less violently, for months; now I had come very near the end of it. I felt that I must either yield or go mad."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Colenso Ridgeon is a respected medical man who has developed a new cure for tuberculosis. His limited resources mean he can cure only a few people at a time, leaving him to decide who lives and who dies. The dilemma he faces is whose life is worth saving: a talented but amoral young artist, or a goodhearted public servant? Ridgeon is helped in his decision by his friends, doctors all, who represent author George Bernard Shaw’s opinion of the medical men of his day: a surgeon who prescribes an operation for every ailment; a general practitioner who sells cheap patent medicines to London’s poor; a wealthy and successful doctor to the rich and famous devoid of any medical talent but with a charming bedside manner; and a cynical retired doctor with no tolerance for modern medical science. Shaw uses this backdrop to draw out the two social problems at the heart of the play. First, what makes one man more worthy of society’s resources: personal virtue, artistic talent, or money? Second, and more important, the play highlights the danger of a medical system where every doctor has an incentive to treat their patients, but not to cure them.

Book excerpt: "The Doctor's Dilemma" is a satirical play written by George Bernard Shaw. This social comedy revolves around the ethical quandaries faced by a set of doctors once they need to determine which affected person is most deserving of limited clinical assets, particularly an existence-saving but experimental treatment. The imperative individual, Sir Colenso Ridgeon, a superb doctor, develops a groundbreaking remedy for tuberculosis, but is faced with the dilemma of getting the simplest amount of medication for one affected person. The scenario becomes more complicated when a charismatic artist, Louis Dubedat, enters the scene. Dubedat is diagnosed with tuberculosis, and his charm and persuasive skills gift a project to the medical doctors as they grapple with personal biases, professional ethics, and their own desires. Shaw uses the play to critique the clinical career, social hierarchies, and the moral complexities of choice-making. The narrative is laced with Shaw's signature wit and highbrow depth, reflecting the priorities and values inherent within the clinical field and society at large. "The Doctor's Dilemma" stands as a notion-scary exploration of the intersection between medicine, morality, and private ambition, showcasing Shaw's mastery of the use of humor and drama to dissect complicated social troubles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Richard Ng can easily recall the darkest day of his life: Feb. 17, 2017. That was the day he was sentenced to eighty-seven months in prison after he admitted in a plea bargain that he prescribed hydrocodone without legitimate medical purposes to an undercover agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration. Although he had seen hundreds if not thousands of patients over the years, he was punished after a handful of visits from undercover agents. In telling his story, he explores the tough choices doctors face when treating patients suffering from chronic pain. Chronic pain patients usually try numerous treatment options before seeking opioid painkillers from doctors, which are effective for pain management. Easing chronic pain with opioids helps many more people than it harms, but addicts have made doctors who prescribe pain medication an easy target. Whether youre a patient suffering from chronic pain trying to understand and ease your condition, a health care provider seeking a larger view of the opioid landscape, or a young doctor considering pain management as a career, youll find valuable information in A Pain Doctors Dilemma.

Download or read book How Doctors Think written by Jerome Groopman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2008-03-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On average, a physician will interrupt a patient describing her symptoms within eighteen seconds. In that short time, many doctors decide on the likely diagnosis and best treatment. Often, decisions made this way are correct, but at crucial moments they can also be wrong—with catastrophic consequences. In this myth-shattering book, Jerome Groopman pinpoints the forces and thought processes behind the decisions doctors make. Groopman explores why doctors err and shows when and how they can—with our help—avoid snap judgments, embrace uncertainty, communicate effectively, and deploy other skills that can profoundly impact our health. This book is the first to describe in detail the warning signs of erroneous medical thinking and reveal how new technologies may actually hinder accurate diagnoses. How Doctors Think offers direct, intelligent questions patients can ask their doctors to help them get back on track. Groopman draws on a wealth of research, extensive interviews with some of the country’s best doctors, and his own experiences as a doctor and as a patient. He has learned many of the lessons in this book the hard way, from his own mistakes and from errors his doctors made in treating his own debilitating medical problems. How Doctors Think reveals a profound new view of twenty-first-century medical practice, giving doctors and patients the vital information they need to make better judgments together.
