Confessions of a Surgeon: The Good, the Bad, and the Complicated...Life Behind the O.R. Doors
“What makes this inspiring medical memoir stand out is the courageous measure of Austin’s humanity.â€â€•Publishers Weekly
In this eye-opening account of life in the ER, Paul Austin recalls how the daily grind of long, erratic shifts and endless hordes of patients with sad stories sent him down a path of bitterness and cynicism. Gritty, powerful, and ultimately redemptive, Something for the Pain is a revealing glimpse into the fragility of compassion and sanity in the industrial setting of today’s hospitals.Country | USA |
