I found this doctor's memoir a fascinating read. This tells the story of a doctor who explores people (as opposed to patients) and the human-connectedness of medicine that is (unfortunately) often pushed aside in the current medical world. Reading this during the current pandemic also added a layer and left me thinking about doctors and nurses who are forced in this crisis to mechanically treat one patient after another without ever knowing the human story of the people who lives they work so hard to save. Incredible stories here and very well written. Recommended.

Very good book from a doctor with some of her patient's stories of various illnesses that they were dealing with. It was refreshing to see these stories and the affect it had on not only the patient but their families and the doctor. You could feel the doctor's compassion and her wanting to learn as well as help not only the patients but there families. It was heart-warming to feel the respect and the want to do as much as she could for her patients. Highly recommended read. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review.
