Becoming a Physician by Dr. Cosby A Stone Jr.
Description
"Becoming A Physician" is a collection of poems that follows a young doctor's journey through medical school classes and the wards, abroad to Tanzania in research on HIV, and through internship and early residency. It includes poems about the doctor-patient relationship, different diagnoses, and snapshot poems that capture a moment in time. The young physician describes experiences such as anatomy dissection, losing his first patient to a terminal illness, caring for patients in resource limited setting, death and faith, personal growth, love, anticipated fatherhood, and maintaining work-life balance in a difficult profession. The poetry collection as a whole weaves a narrative thread maintained by the growth of the author during medical training, and alternates between being humorous and serious.
