Produktbeschreibung

"Doctor Lovell is a busy family practice doctor in New Orleans. He cares for large numbers of extremely ill patients with very demanding needs. In addition to this, he must figure out how to handle frivolous lawsuits, unscrupulous doctors, incompetent hospital administrators, corrupt hospitals, self-serving managed care health plans, and crooked nursing homes. In the middle of all this, he somehow becomes entangled with a clandestine organization trying to stop an international terrorist plot from overthrowing the country. Making matters worse is an eccentric family member named Papa, who just can't seem to stay out of trouble."

Marcus Lovell is it struggling primary care physician finding it increasingly difficult to practice medicine in a corrupt environment of self-serving hospitals, managed care organizations, nursing homes, and crooked doctors. He is contacted by the Spectacular, an individual in hiding that everyone is searching for, who winds up being the most unlikely individual imaginable, with the purpose of using Doctor Lovell as an instrument to clean up health care corruption in the city. The two are drawn into a struggle with an international organization which has positioned hidden agents in key positions of power in the United States government In an effort to bring down the country and shift the balance of world power. The story builds to a stirring climax in the final confrontation between the Spectacular and his powerful adversary.

The book is really a satirical fiction and pokes fun in a critical way at many of the problems doctors face trying to take care of patients. In this way it brings to light many discrepancies in the system which are often frustrating to practicing physicians. Even though this work is fictional it describes real life problems many people face involving the health care system which haven't been written about yet in literature. Many of the cases described in this work are loosely based on real life situations I have encountered in practice.
