Intern gives the reader a gripping picture of hospital routine, of treh exhaustion that round the clock dury inflicts, of teh conflicts, incredible blunders, frantic improvisations, heroic efforts that occur every day....

...This is an unprecendented document. Every event is completely true; only actual names and places have been concealed to protect the privacy of the individuals involved.]]> 404 Doctor X. Maryse 3 living it, there just doesn't seem any point in reading it. Not that this isn't a good book. Much of it still rings true today (at least where I'm training) and I recommend it to anyone thinking about entering Medicine.

I'll probably read this again when I get a vacation or something]]> 4.10 1965

review:
Read this because I was entering internship at a large hospital. But when you start living it, there just doesn't seem any point in reading it. Not that this isn't a good book. Much of it still rings true today (at least where I'm training) and I recommend it to anyone thinking about entering Medicine.

I'll probably read this again when I get a vacation or something
