À propos de cet audio

Filled with stories of strange medical cases and unforgettable patients culled from a 30-year career in medicine, Cook County ICU offers listeners a peek into the inner workings of a hospital. Author Cory Franklin, MD, who headed the hospital's intensive care unit from the 1970s through the 1990s, shares his most unique and bizarre experiences, including the deadly Chicago heatwave of 1995, treating the first AIDS patients in the country before the disease was diagnosed, the nurse with rare Munchausen syndrome, the only surviving ricin victim, and the professor with Alzheimer's hiding the effects of the wrong medication. Surprising, darkly humorous, heartwarming, and sometimes tragic, these stories provide a big-picture look at how the practice of medicine has changed over the years, making it a must-listen for patients, doctors, and anyone with an interest in medicine.

the experience through a medical student was interesting and the experience with being in cast and video production is quite an interesting listen as well.

Definitely listen at a quicker speed, narration is very slow and monotonous, but very clear
Stories are unique, not a bad free listen

This doctor really loves himself. He bangs on and on about himself and his brilliance. Every other member of the healthcare team is just a supporting character to this demigod.

Obnoxious...don't waste the credit!

Not worth the download. Not enough interesting medical stories. More bragging about what patients he looked after. Not at all what I thought this book would be like. Don't waste your time reading it like I did.

So boring
