Thomas Neviaser, MD is a retired orthopedic surgeon who has traded in his knife for a word processor. His most recent book, BONES & ME, is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Goodreads. Please join him 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 he will give you a glimpse of the grueling life of a medical student, an intern, and an orthopedic resident in the 1960s plus his Navy career, how he established his private practice, and my contributions to orthopedic surgery. Also, he expresses his feelings about how medicine has unfortunately changed from then to now and why. There really is no comparable work on the market, and your trip with him will be well worth the read.Please check out his other books at www.thomasneviaser.com:He has spoken and written about bone and joint conditions, extensively in his 36 years of being in the field of orthopedic surgery.
