More praise for
WHEN THE AIR HITS YOUR BRAIN
“At a time when doctors have forgotten how to be teachers, and medical training has become disease-oriented and depersonalizing, comes a book that can help alter that view. When the Air Hits Your Brain lets you feel the pain, grief and joy of practicing medicine. I know from experience that some physicians believe their M.D. makes them Medical Dieties but I know for me it meant My Disease. Read and understand the emotions and feelings physicians live with that they are poorly prepared for by their disease-oriented training. Physicians know how to think but not how to feel. Dr. Frank Vertosick is not a ‘normal’ doctor, thank goodness. This book should be read by every medical student, doctor and present or potential patient. In other words, by all of us.”
—Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of Love, Medicine and Miracles
“Dr. Frank Vertosick provides an amusing, insightful and honest inside view of the training of the neurosurgeon. This highly readable account of daily life on the wards shows all the humility, fortitude, and humanity that genuinely underlies this sometimes not well-understood but genuinely wonderful profession.”
—Dr. David W. Roberts, professor of surgery (neurosurgery), Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center
