Michael Rosenblum

The Decline of American Medicine

Where Have All the Doctors Gone?

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Why is it so difficult to find a good doctor, and see the doctor when you have a problem? Why are you told to "go to the emergency room?" Why is your "doctor" a nurse practitioner? The U.S. health care system, heralded as the finest in the world, has been in decline for a number of years. Here are the explanations for the decline in availability of primary health care, its increasing cost, and the increasingly impersonal care encountered by the patient. Dr. Rosenblum, chosen by his peers as a leading physician in his community, clarifies the many issues contributing to deterioration of health care. He employs his experience as an internist, and interviews with key individuals involved in health policy and health care delivery. He proposes solutions to halt the disintegration of primary health care, which if restored to its former position of prominence, would reverse the downhill course of medical care in the United States.

Autorenporträt

As a baby, Michael Rosenbum would lie in his diaper and watch the ants move about on the sidewalk. Living in his imaginative worlds, he grew up as a whimsical thinker, realizing that even the sun plays hide and seek on a rainy day. This positive and hopeful mindset has empowered him to believe that even life's unpleasant moments are just hidden lessons that can unlock his dreams. A successful businessman, he is humbled and passionate to share insightful messages within his "Happily Ever Always" series. The Caterpillar and the Butterfly, Michael's first book of the series, featuring Faith the butterfly, was published by Austin Macauley in February 2021. Matylda McCormack-Sharp is a UK-based artist who studied illustration at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. She enjoys working both traditionally, in ink and watercolor, and digitally. She finds illustration to be one of the most valuable forms of communication, and aims to create art that is playful and will engage across the generations. She created the illustrations for What's Happening to Me Now?, a book about peri-menopause written by Heather Wright, and Yawa the Adventurer, a mid-grade comic series written by Bernard Mensah.
