Bad Medicine

"Do no harm" is a creed and oath of beneficence all healthcare professionals are expected to strictly abide by in their practices. As patients, we expect those in the medical community to uphold the health, safety, and general wellbeing of every person under their care. While a vast majority of medical professionals sustain their oath resolutely, there are exceptions to any rule.

Description

Bad Medicine explores the darker side of the medical profession, where the ideal of "do no harm" is challenged. This principle, an oath of beneficence, is one that all healthcare professionals are expected to strictly uphold. As patients, we rely on those in the medical community to ensure our health, safety, and general wellbeing. While the vast majority of medical professionals honour this oath, there are exceptions to every rule. Sociopathy, narcissism, corruption, greed, unethical behaviour, and criminality are not traits isolated to the general population. This collection of tales, although intriguing and fascinating, is also invaluable for both patients and healthcare professionals. Within Bad Medicine are five spine-tingling stories that provide insight into the warning signs of unethical behaviour and the devastating effects resulting from the actions of an immoral healthcare provider. Please note that this book contains material that may not be suitable for younger audiences. Parents should exercise caution before allowing their children to read these stories.
