Synopsis
"Must reading for every physician who cares for patients and every patient who wishes to get the best care." -- Time magazine From Dr. Jerome Groopman, Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Chief of Experimental Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and one of the world's leading researchers in cancer and AIDS, a groundbreaking, profound view of twenty-first-century medical practice, giving doctors and patients the vital information they need to make better judgments together. On average, a physician will interrupt a patient describing her symptoms within eighteen seconds. In that short time, many doctors decide on the likely diagnosis and best treatment. Often, decisions made this way are correct, but at crucial moments they can also be wrong--with catastrophic consequences. In this revolutionary book, Dr. Jerome Groopman pinpoints the forces and thought processes behind the decisions doctors make, offering direct, intelligent questions patients can ask their doctors to help them get back on track. Drawing on extensive interviews with some of the country's best doctors and Groopman's own experiences as a doctor and as a patient, How Doctors Think reveals an important approach to twenty-first-century medical practice, giving doctors and patients a way to make better judgments together., A New Yorker staff writer, bestselling author, and professor at Harvard Medical School unravels the mystery of how doctors figure out the best treatments--or fail to do so. This book describes the warning signs of flawed medical thinking and offers intelligent questions patients can ask., "Must reading for every physician who cares for patients and every patient who wishes to get the best care." --Time magazine From Dr. Jerome Groopman, Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Chief of Experimental Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and one of the world's leading researchers in cancer and AIDS, a groundbreaking, profound view of twenty-first-century medical practice, giving doctors and patients the vital information they need to make better judgments together.

  • With stories of medical journeys including the authors own, he illustrates a variety of doctor's opinions.

    Read this book years ago and as an oncology nurse I thought it was very informative. I believe people inside and outside of healthcare would benefit from the authors stories and give readers more confidence in questioning how one arrived at a diagnoses, treatment delays and general courtesies one should expect in the healthcare setting.

  • How Doctors Think

    I loved this book which is so insightful about how doctors think when diagnosing patients. Dr. Groopman shares cases he has had in such a way that the reader can feel his empathy toward them. He allows you to delve into his mind as he tackles diagnoses with cunning and compassion.
