To Do No Harm: A Journey Through Medical School

by Philip Reilly

Overview

This insightful and balanced chronicle of the author's education at Yale Medical School provides a personal, yet universal, portrait of the unique passage from student to healer. At a time when the medical profession is subject to exceptional scrutiny, Dr. Reilly's account reminds all of the ideals and skills implicit in the title Doctor. It successfully represents the highest aspirations that motivate those in the medical professions, while sensitively—even poignantly—acknowledging the limitations of caregivers and medical technology.
