Publisher's Synopsis
A growing number of forces hostile to the interests of patients are becoming evident. Although physicians are normally advocates for their patients, their ability to act in ways that promote their patient's rights and interests is being eroded. This book explores these intrusions into the doctor-patient relationship, with numerous case examples drawn from the author's experience in a major urban medical centre. Readers will gain a better understanding of their rights as patients and how to forge an alliance with their doctors against common enemies.
