The Wise Doctor

By Russell Gruen

This is one of the world’s shortest medical books. It may also be one of the most important. It addresses what distinguishes the best doctors from their otherwise competent and professional colleagues.

It also explores how students and graduates can aspire to be best-in-class. Far from a recipe for passing exams, here is an essential guide to fostering wisdom throughout one’s career.

Relevant to trainees and practitioners at all stages, this book illuminates a path to realising your full potential as a wise doctor
