We the Patients: How America's Health Care System Was Hijacked and What We Must Do to Reclaim the Soul of Medicine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781439250143)

We all know that America's health care system isn't serving the people, but how did that happen and what can we do about it? In this blunt account backed up by 40 years on the frontlines of health care, Dr. Sam JW Romeo exposes the money-driven manipulations that destroyed the doctor-patient relationship while making the wrong people rich. A respected physician, group practice executive and former medical school associate dean, Dr. Romeo explains why empowering patients is the only hope for true reform. Using real-life examples and common sense, he takes our current system apart and shows us how to put it together again in a way that works. We the Patients will open your eyes and give you hope for the future. Reading it will change the way you see doctors, hospitals, drug companies, health insurance, medical schools and our nation's leaders. This authoritative book shows us how to regain control of our personal health and health care system.
