What are the strains on his or her family? What are the issues doctors face in and outside their practice?

I graduated from medical school in 1978 and finished my cardiology fellowship in 1983. I am board certified in both internal medicine and cardiology and board eligible for critical care medicine. I took my training and moved to where I was needed the most—in a small town where no cardiologist was within thirty miles. Because of the sensitive nature of much of this book, all names and towns are fictitious.ver menos
