Studying medicine can be both a joyous exploration and a dry mind-numbing slog through endless technical material.
In this episode we discuss the Eastland Press book “A Walk Along the River.” This book is not just a glimpse into the mind of a seasoned and well-read practitioner, but also brings in the aspect of dialogue, as his clinical cases and considerations are further illuminated by the questions posed by three doctors.
If you’ve ever read a book on medicine that gave you the “what” of a treatment, but left you hanging because it failed to include the “why,” this book will be a useful addition to your library.
In this episode we discuss the process of translating, dig into Dr Yu’s thinking, and touch in on how to move forward when you don’t know what to do.
