Features: The author was once a clinical doctor. His personal experiences and observations led him to write this book. Extensive research and material accumulation give the book strong credibility. In addition to typical cases, the author meticulously analyzes the seemingly trivial details we encounter in daily life. The book discusses that in outpatient clinics, some doctors frequently prescribe a large number of tests and lab reports for patients, relying solely on the results to diagnose conditions without their own subjective analysis and judgment. "These doctors are like disabled people who can only walk with crutches—without them, they cannot move." The author analyzes the loss of professionalism and declining skill levels among some medical workers in a (frantic and confused) environment. Therefore, while focusing on dissecting the broader context and major cases, the author also deeply calls for humanistic awareness and compassion, believing it to be the key to improving China's overall medical standards. The book is divided into five parts: "Medical Dilemma," "Medical Madness," "White Vortex," "Medicine and Drugs," and "Medical Grievances," revealing the various persistent problems in the medical industry.
