    <body><![CDATA[I read the first couple of chapters of Dr. Transue's first book, and I keep a doctor for a wife, so I'm familiar with both her style and subject.  She deals a lot with death here, and as you would guess, it's the stories of her own family that mean the most.  A goodread, but not a greatread.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;<em>Patient by Patient</em> is the memoir of a young doctor, fresh from residency, as she explores the joys and frustrations of beginning her medical practice.  As she strives to help her patients face a range of challenges from the humorous to the profoundly devastating she learns that while medical school gave her an M.D., treating patients has made her a doctor.  <br/>At the same time she is working with her patients she is also struggling with illness in her own family.  Through her shifting perspectives of doctor, daughter, and granddaughter, she contents with the process of dying, the experience of grief, and the buoyancy of the human spirit.<br/>Dr. Transue began chronicling her experiences in her memoir of residency, <em>On Call</em>, and she continues her education here but the source of her knowledge about love, loss, hope and healing are not medical texts or professors but the patients she treats and gets to know &#8211; those she helps to wellness and those she must let go.  <br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Emily R. Transue, MD, </strong>author of <em>On Call,</em> is a native of Toledo, Ohio, and a graduate of Yale College and Dartmouth Medical School.  She did her residency and chief residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Washington, Seattle.  She works as a general internist at a multispecialty group in Seattle, and is a clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Washington.  She received the Providence-Seattle Medical Center Outstanding Educator of the Year award in 2003, and is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians.  She has also published stories and poems in <em>JAMA</em>, <em>Dartmouth Medicine</em>, and elsewhere.<br/><br/><br/><br/> <br/><br/>&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <body><![CDATA[While I enjoyed this book, I found her earlier book, &quot;On Call&quot; to be better written and more interesting.  In this book, Dr. Transue focuses too much on her family and not enough on pt interaction and the challenges of being a primary care physician.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;<em>Patient by Patient</em> is the memoir of a young doctor, fresh from residency, as she explores the joys and frustrations of beginning her medical practice.  As she strives to help her patients face a range of challenges from the humorous to the profoundly devastating she learns that while medical school gave her an M.D., treating patients has made her a doctor.  <br/>At the same time she is working with her patients she is also struggling with illness in her own family.  Through her shifting perspectives of doctor, daughter, and granddaughter, she contents with the process of dying, the experience of grief, and the buoyancy of the human spirit.<br/>Dr. Transue began chronicling her experiences in her memoir of residency, <em>On Call</em>, and she continues her education here but the source of her knowledge about love, loss, hope and healing are not medical texts or professors but the patients she treats and gets to know &#8211; those she helps to wellness and those she must let go.  <br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Emily R. Transue, MD, </strong>author of <em>On Call,</em> is a native of Toledo, Ohio, and a graduate of Yale College and Dartmouth Medical School.  She did her residency and chief residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Washington, Seattle.

    <![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;Emily Transue earned her credentials in medical school, but learns lessons of a different kind when she embarks on private practice. Her patients, some delightful, some difficult, all come to her for medical advice but, they are not the only ones gaining from the experience. As Dr. Transue guides them through routine exams and life-challenging crises she learns much about life and death, hope and fear and being the physician she wants to be. These lessons carry over into her personal life as she struggles with heartwrenching illness and loss in her own family. Throughout, she is a keen observer of her patients, their families, and their lives.&lt;/DIV&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;<em>Patient by Patient</em> is the memoir of a young doctor, fresh from residency, as she explores the joys and frustrations of beginning her medical practice.  As she strives to help her patients face a range of challenges from the humorous to the profoundly devastating she learns that while medical school gave her an M.D., treating patients has made her a doctor.  <br/>At the same time she is working with her patients she is also struggling with illness in her own family.  Through her shifting perspectives of doctor, daughter, and granddaughter, she contents with the process of dying, the experience of grief, and the buoyancy of the human spirit.<br/>Dr. Transue began chronicling her experiences in her memoir of residency, <em>On Call</em>, and she continues her education here but the source of her knowledge about love, loss, hope and healing are not medical texts or professors but the patients she treats and gets to know &#8211; those she helps to wellness and those she must let go.  <br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Emily R. Transue, MD, </strong>author of <em>On Call,</em> is a native of Toledo, Ohio, and a graduate of Yale College and Dartmouth Medical School.  She did her residency and chief residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Washington, Seattle.  She works as a general internist at a multispecialty group in Seattle, and is a clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Washington.  She received the Providence-Seattle Medical Center Outstanding Educator of the Year award in 2003, and is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians.  She has also published stories and poems in <em>JAMA</em>, <em>Dartmouth Medicine</em>, and elsewhere.<br/><br/><br/><br/> <br/><br/>&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>
