The book highlights the experiences of clinicians nationwide who embody toughness, resourcefulness, and resilience while navigating the challenges of a flawed healthcare system. It explores the tension between their commitment to patient-first values, as dictated by the Hippocratic oath, and the business pressures they face. Through various examples, it advocates for improvements in medicine that benefit both healers and their patients.
