Join me on a 60-year adventure from medical school to re-retirement. There will be many funny stories and some sad ones that influenced my approach to treating patients, and I will give you a glimpse of the grueling life of a medical student, an intern, and an orthopedic resident in the 1960s plus my Navy career, how I established my private practice, and my contributions to orthopedic surgery. Also, I express my feelings about how medicine has changed from then to now and why.
I don't think there is comparable work on the market, and your trip with me will be well worth the read.
Dr. Neviaser is a retired orthopedic surgeon and author of many medical articles, papers, presentations, and contributions to medical texts. He's written extensively on shoulder conditions, his specialty. He is available as a speaker on most orthopedic conditions. His dynamic presentations involve a great deal of audience participation and personalized attention to attendees. Now retired, he has traded his scalpel for a word processor. His newest book, BONES & ME, is now available on Amazon. This work is about his journey from medical school to retirement mixed with interesting and sometimes hilarious stories plus his thoughts about the changes, good and bad, in medicine over the last 50 years. As he says, “None of my patients really knew the guy in the white jacket, scrubs or a mask while they expressed their innermost feelings and life stories to me, so I thought I would give them a glimpse of what I went through to get where I am today." Dr. Neviaser is proud of his orthopedic guide book for the lay person, THE WAY I SEE IT: A Head-to-Toe Guide Guide To Common Orthopaedic Conditions and his first novel, YOU DEAR SWEET MAN seen below. His second novel, THE MYSTERY OF FLIGHT 2222, is now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble as well as Goodreads.com.
