Assume the Physician: Modern Medicine's "Catch-22"

by John F. Hunt MD

Overview

ASSUME THE PHYSICIAN is a spicy, eye-opening, tear-jerking, belly-laughing romp, and is chicken-soup for anyone who struggles in the medical system of America. A novel written in the humorous and radical style of Catch-22, M*A*S*H, and House of God, ASSUME THE PHYSICIAN lays bare the core problems with our current health care systems and the causes of medical hyperinflation, all from the perspective of a thoughtful young physician, Dr. Eddie Marcus, who is fighting to stay kind and caring while engaging in battle against the many agencies and authorities who like to make oh-so-many rules.
