Customer Reviews

humanizes the medical profession

Dr. Greenberg has successfully brought the medical profession into focus, allowing the layman to realize that doctors are just people too; but at the same time telling doctors that their patients are human beings, and not just the source of their income. His insights, and observations, that the medical profession should do all it can to allow those who dont have the ability to pay, receive equal medical treatment as those who are more fortunate, is both refreshing and insightful. I highly reccomend this book.
