Hey, Doc! Are You Listening to Your Heart?: One Physician's Quest for the Connection between Love and Healing

If you want to help change medicine, give this book to your doctor, but only after you read it yourself. "Hey, Doc!, Are You Listening to Your Heart " tells the true story of Dr. Richard Sheff's personal journey through medical training in a surprisingly gripping page turner you won't want to put down. From the unique perspective of a nationally respected, mature physician, Dr. Sheff reflects deeply on the formative experiences of medical school and residency, giving the reader unexpected insights into the heart and mind of doctors, and ultimately into the connection between love, medical practice, and the healing we all seek. Through provocative stories that reveal the inner experience of physicians as ordinary people in extraordinary situations, Dr. Sheff provides both an insider's critique of so much that is wrong with medicine as well as an appreciation of the best of medicine.
