My Works of Medical Fiction Continue
First, I published my initial medical trilogy (The Class of 1969, Thirteen Months a Year, The Stone Mother) about medical school, my internship and first years in practice.
Then I followed that with my Executive series, where readers will learn about the health care system in depth.
The Pitt Gets It Right
I watched the first season of The Pitt and await subsequent seasons on HULU. Having been a physician for many years I can attest that it’s on target, a great show, and a gritty hour-by-hour view of a busy urban emergency department. The medical care is accurate and current. However, it is more than a situational drama, the subtext is medical ethics. Every episode has elements of ethical dilemmas, which the cast must try to resolve in real time.
