what a book. pulled me right out of a reading slump. an incredibly true story that only makes me want to work in medicine even more. patients need doctors who won’t give up on them ever and this is proof of why

A terrifying story that both makes me value what I have and also renews my belief in supporting ongoing medical research and continuing education for doctors. It’s terrifying to think of how often patients get misdiagnosed with psychological issues that are actually physical.
