À propos de cet audio

As an active surgeon and former department chairman, Dr. Paul A. Ruggieri has seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of his profession. In Confessions of a Surgeon, he pushes open the doors of the OR and reveals the inscrutable place where lives are improved, saved, and sometimes lost. He shares the successes, failures, remarkable advances, and camaraderie that make it exciting. He uncovers the truth about the abusive, exhaustive training and the arduous devotion of his old-school education. He explores the 24-hour challenges that come from patients and their loved ones; the ethics of saving the lives of repugnant criminals; the hot-button issues of health care, lawsuits, and reimbursements; and the true cost of running a private practice. And he explains the influence of the "white coat code of silence" and why patients may never know what really transpires during surgery. Ultimately, Dr. Ruggieri lays bare an occupation that to most is as mysterious and unfamiliar as it is misunderstood. His account is passionate, illuminating, and often shocking - an eye-opening, never-before-seen look at real life, and death, in the OR.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"An honest and open look into the surgical profession." ( Library Journal)

So overall it was a great listen. The narrator was great with good inflection of voice volume. The stories felt personal and was described in a intriguing and relatable manner. My only complaint was that he would mention the same stories, complaints and/or concepts over again, often more than necessary. Still overall I was very pleased and would recommend.

Very eye opening concepts however a bit repetitive
