Synopsis
The book is filled with patient anecdotes that expose the reader to the joys and sorrows of pregnancy and childbirth. The author uses these anecdotes as a platform to educate the reader about the many poorly understood aspects of academic medicine as well as medicine in general. Although there are many current books on the market that are medical memoirs of physician experiences, Special Delivery is unique in chronicling the development of a medical career from a student's struggles with pre-med college courses to achievement of tenure as a full professor at a major medical school. The author's challenges with his own diagnosis of a rare autoimmune disease and his wife's subsequent diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma introduce a new perspective from the "other side of the bed" on the problems with healthcare in our country., "Special Delivery" is an obstetrician's honest account of a changing healthcare environment. A memoir spanning four decades of an academic high-risk obstetrician that follows a journey from a pre-med major to appointment as tenured full professor at three major American medical schools.

- c***r (557)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook exactly as specified, rapid international delivery (USA to UK), and a reasonable price for an out-of-print book. I was also very pleased and reassured by the quality of packaging for the book. It arrived in a cardboard box, and inside, it had brown paper to pad out the box, plus brown paper around the book to further protect it. This meant the book survived international shipping in great condition. On that basis, I highly recommend this seller.Hardstyle Abs: Hit Hard. Lift Heavy. Look the Part. by in New (#127042788743)
