Reviews
No Apparent Distress is filled with the moving stories of a medical student's journey providing health care at the margins of American life. Rachel Pearson shines a spotlight on the brutal inequalities present within our healthcare system. -- Damon Tweedy, MD, author of Black Man in a White Coat Rachel Pearson comes from a hard place. In her memoir, No Apparent Distress, she tells the story of a Texas hospital that has been flattened by a hurricane and is being rebuilt-literally rebuilt-around her and her colleagues while they pursue their medical training. Working at a clinic for the poor and uninsured teaches Pearson the empathy she will need to cultivate if she expects to act as an effective advocate for her patients. It also teaches her about the inequities and injustices of the American health care system, and the labor of love required of anyone who decides to pursue the practice of medicine in this country. -- Judy Melinek, MD, and T. J. Mitchell, coauthors of the New York Times best-selling memoir Working Stiff: Two Years, 262 Bodies, and the Making of a Medical Examiner, Educative and thoughtful....Pearson's inspired collective of illuminating clinical episodes immediately sparks to life....Eloquently and briskly written., Educative and thoughtful....Pearson''''s inspired collective of illuminating clinical episodes immediately sparks to life....Eloquently and briskly written., Rachel Pearson comes from a hard place.

Her courage, honesty and doggedness are evident on every page., No Apparent Distress is filled with the moving stories of a medical student's journey providing health care at the margins of American life. Rachel Pearson shines a spotlight on the brutal inequalities present within our healthcare system.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Insightful and entertaining! Thanks for the visit down memory lane from an ex BOI!

    Great insight into the life of a young doctor returning to her home turf to practice medicine, where everyone knows that she'd once had to bug bomb her truck for roaches! You'd have to have lived on the Island to understand the necessity of this occasional practice but still hilarious! Also, it was extremely interesting to know what really went on at UTMB just after hurricane Katrina. I was a volunteer with the Coastal Bend AIDs Coalition at the time and our clients suffered terribly because of the changes. It was extremely interesting to know the inside story which I don't think the general public was ever aware of. Just an all around great read, I hope to see more from this talented writer!
