Synopsis
“It’s neither a Republican nor a Democratic party view point, it’s an old-time medical practitioner telling it the way it was and the way it is.” – Gunther Hirsch, MD, MPH Gunther Hirsch, MD, has followed the delivery of the health system for fifty-seven years and more so since the Obama Bill on health care was passed by the US Congress and became the law of the country. Already, insurance companies are balking - increasing premiums, reducing coverage and just plain bailing out. The medical community invents the wheel; it goes by different labels: “Functional Medicine”, “Urban Medicine” and “Boutique Medicine”. The imagination is boundless. Medicine has become a supermarket commodity. Target advertises, “We specialize in booboos, owies and whoopsies - routine health care for life’s little uh-ohs.” Wal-Mart gives flu shots and expands and advertises at the store entrances that they will bill the insurers. As this book will tell the reader, general practice was the correct term for all of this and they weren’t called booboos, whoopsies and owies. Looks like going to medical school for seven years and then internship and residency is a waste of time. It’s so simple; after all, one just suffers from OWIES. SICK! is a refreshing dose of the right medicine for an ailing medical system.
