| â Moshe Scheinâ s life as a surgeon on four continents and his skills as a storyteller make for compelling reading.â Abraham Verghese, Author of Cutting for Stone and The Covenant of Water This is a story of a 50-year-long surgical life, across four continents, and numerous hospitals â academic, community, and rural â in a few countries. Unlike the typical memoirs of surgeons, glorifying their accomplishments and paying tribute to our noble profession, this memoir is different: it's not written by a surgical â giantâ or a famous scientific innovator; it doesnâ t tell the story of a surgical Paganini but rather of a surgical workhorse. It portrays a surgical career in the trenches, as it is, in stark colors, warts and all â topics that others prefer not to write or speak about â complications, malpractice, medical politics, and intrigue. Although â surgicalâ is its claim to fame, this memoir is aimed not only at surgeons or medical practitioners. Whenever possible, the author portrays events and persons against a background and perspective of the various times and places. The General Surgeon pays tribute to the author's brothers in the trenches â the humble, run-of-the-mill general surgeons worldwide. |
