Reflects the recent scarcity of entreprenurial doctors

Healer's Twilight is a medical thriller about the human cost of managed care. Caught between an unscrupulous cardiologist colleague, false accusations of health care fraud, and a deteriorating marriage, the protagonist Dr. David Heyworth must weigh once and for all whether the medical trade he studied for is truly worth his continued pursuit. Written specifically to reflect the recent scarcity of entreprenurial doctors in favor of those who must agree to corporate managed health care, this novel paints a vivid and disturbing picture of crisis.
