It is a timely and human document that Dr. Hays has put together in Doctor and Patience Most medical schools turn out the medical student of to-day having taught him much of diagnosis, little of therapeutics, and still less of medical ethics. The science of medicine is taught to-day as thoroughly as our scientific knowledge permits, but the rules and laws of conduct governing the profession in their relation to each other and the peculiar professional relations between the doctor and his patient, are left for each individual student to acquire by experience as he goes along. Formerly, when the preceptor system was in vogue and every young student attached himself to some older physician, each one acquired the traditions of the profession and absorbed the result of the elders experience in life and was thus saved many mistakes that he otherwise might have made.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, written by a doctor, takes on the challenge of educating newly practicing physicians on how to start their own practice and helps them develop the character they need to succeed. The author, who recounts the experience of starting their own practice, does not claim to have all the answers, but seeks to help young doctors avoid the many pitfalls that come with being a newly independent doctor. The narrative of this book is engaging and honest, discussing hot-button topics in modern medical practice such as fee-splitting and kickbacks, and explores the ways in which young doctors can practice medicine ethically. Ultimately, the book is not just a "how-to" guide, but a meditation on the vocation of medicine itself, and the ways in which young doctors can position themselves to practice medicine in the best possible way. This book is a valuable addition to the library of any young doctor.
