Intern: A Doctor's Initiation Book

Intern is Dr. Sandeep Jauharâ??s story of his days and nights in residency at a busy hospital in New York City, a trial that led him to question his every assumption about medical care today. Residencyâ??and especially its first year, the internshipâ??is legendary for its brutality, and Jauharâ??s experience was even more harrowing than most. He switched from physics to medicine in order to follow a more humane callingâ??only to find that his new profession often had little regard for patientsâ?? concerns. He struggled to find a place among squadrons of cocky residents and doctors. He challenged the practices of the internship in The New York Times, attracting the suspicions of the medical bureaucracy. Then, suddenly stricken, he became a patient himselfâ??and came to see that todayâ??s high-tech, high-pressure medicine can be a humane science after all. Jauharâ??s beautifully written memoir explains the inner workings of modern medicine with rare candor and insight. Read More
