Desperate patients?


Jerome Groopman is a top doctor at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and a contributor to The New Yorker, which is where I've read some of his discussion of medicine and hospitals. He has a book, How Doctors Think, that will be published in the spring and today's Boston Globe has a column about the book that leaves the reader feeling a bit frightened at the state of medical care in the US today. I think it's a must-read.
