You should not! And also why to study from Conrad Fischer's , go and read someone else, since you believe he is such a creep, there are many boutiques out there trying to sell usmle stuff. Let me guess, you didn't get enough attention and now you are trying to blame him for being such a great teacher, and very popular and very successful. I am sick and tired of women who claim that they have been harassed and they do nothing about it! It is either he violated his role as a teacher and you should do something about it, or stop trying to defame his character in a public forum. The book is excellent and very inspirational, and I and thousands and thousands of students attend Dr.Fischer's classes he is the best and most prolific faculty you will ever see in your life.

Just go and attend one of his courses- he is pretty much marketing during the ENTIRE time he's there. Either it's this book or one of his other medical books. I'm convinced he's just out to make money. He is lewd, obnoxious, and immoral. He has hit on me as well as at least one other girl in my our class. I wouldn't support such a worthless d-bag who is so desperate for fame, attention, and younger female med students. believe in medicine and be happy about breakthroughs. however, avoid conrad fischer (if you only knew how much of a creep he is!)

Trust me! It's worth the read. It's hard to explain the impact the book really has through forums, or even through reading an interview, but I'm telling you, it is a quality book! I sincerely advise going to your local Barnes and Nobles and at least reading the first few chapters, it won't cost you a penny. I guarantee you will be addicted to it. It not only speaks about the modern advances in Medicine, but also speaks about the modern attitude toward Medicine from the view-point of BOTH physicians AND patients alike. It’s an interesting and enlightening breath of fresh air to be able to hear it from the patient’s mouth, both the good and the bad since often times we are so caught up with our own view-point. The book is FILLED with information about cutting edge medical technology, and how modern advances in Medicine are really changing the quality of life of humanity. This book speaks to all audiences and it is a book that is FULLY ACTIONABLE. It talks about the dynamic between the physician and the patient and Medicine’s evolution from the times where physicians were the sole care taker, to the present time where the patient/physician relationship is stronger. It speaks about how because of this stronger bond and trust between the patient and physician, patient care has improved, and mortality has decreased. I feel the measurement of success hinges on the meaningful interactions we develop with our patients, and that we can overcome any obstacle by abiding by a central philosophy: serve every patient to the utmost of our ability, impacting them in a way that transcends a merely business-like relationship. Look guys, I am not a promoter of this book. I'm just a big fan of its content after reading it through. I have bought several copies to send to friends of mine both in medical and non-medically related fields, and I think most of you will be equally as enthusiastic as I am if you pick it up. It’s a MUST READ in my opinion for anyone in the health care field especially medical students/residents. After reading it, if it were up to me, I would make it part of any Medical School curriculum. For any of you who truly appreciate medicine and its modern advances, this book will not let you down. I promise you! Guys,

I am sick of hearing the "If you like what you do" line. Yes, we like what we do, but we expect to get paid appropriately for what we do. No one said they want to hit the jackpot, but I do not want to work for the government for a salary that is not enough for the amount of work, money, and time I put into this terrible job.

Man is far away from being an idiot. Dr Fischer is very passionate about what he does and he isnt afraid to speak up. "Older physician" who cares about whats going on with medicine... its RARE for a change. LOL For those of you,who went to medicine to hit the jackpot overnight might as well change career now! There are bunch of other professions out there with bigger income and less time/effort investment and smaller student loans. As long as you are have passion for it. Remember, you have to do something that you really like every day, whole day or night lol. If you dont like your job, you wont be happy doing it or achieve "peace of mind" regardless how much you are getting paid. We all can, well, most of us, id problems and negativity of medicine today from docs' as well as, patients' standing point of view. Majority cant afford medical insurance despite of 12-16 hrs work day shifts. How many of those, who work in hospitals, can actually afford to be treated there without filing Chapter 7/11 afterwards??? Sadly, new generation of docs coming out of med schools have same IGNORANCE as "older physicians" or professors who taugt them. Just because "older" ones are too afraid to change or claim they are "beter"..... Courage is the ability to confront fear, pain, risk/danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. "Physical courage" is courage in the face of physical pain, hardship, or threat of death, while "moral courage" is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, or discouragement DOCTORS!!! stop whining about income. You will still make enough, lol. drop your IGNORANCE and you will feel free and before you know it, you will be performing "routine miracles" yourselves. I sat for review course with Dr Fischer.
