Malpractice : a neurosurgeon reveals how our health-care system puts patients at risk / Lawrence B. Schlachter ; with John Bechtel. by Schlachter, Lawrence B., author. New York, NY : Skyhorse Publishing, c2017. Subjects Medical errors -- United States.   Medical care -- United States -- Quality control.   Hospital patients -- Legal status, laws, etc. -- United States. ISBN:  9781510712591 (hardcover) : 1510712593 (hardcover) Description:  xiii, 246 pages ; 24 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  The Institute of Medicine released a landmark report, which revealed that as many as 250,000 Americans die every year as a result of medical error. In Malpractice, neurosurgeon and attorney Dr. Lawrence Schlachter makes a case that most patients enter the system without any idea of the risks they face, due to a medical culture that denies there is a patient safety problem. He argues that medical culture actively avoids transparency, perpetuates an atmosphere of blind defense to doctors, and protects dangerous doctors from accountability.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 610.289 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList
