Doctors are struggling.The profession has changed, from a craft focused on healing and built on knowledge, thought, and character, to what ends up feeling more and more like a factory job with an assembly line mentality, concerned primarily with budgets and efficiency. Doctors have gone from leaders to servants. Stress, uncertainty, and burnout have naturally followed.This is not a book about health care policy, or about what might, could, or should happen in the future. Instead, it's a book to help every doctor understand what is happening — to him, to his colleagues, and to his profession — and to help everyone who works with doctors understand how to harness the power of doctors in order to move health care forward. It's a book that shows doctors what they can do to empower themselves, expand their influence, and make a difference in their professional lives, every day.Solutions to health care problems have become so much more varied and complex than they used to be — but what they all have in common is that they are filtered through doctors. And, unfortunately, too many doctors today are suffering.In this book, you can take the three-step journey to help Rescue The Doctor —REFRAME the way you see the state of health care and the changes affecting doctors worldwide,TRANSLATE these shifts into the skills that you need in order to succeed and thrive, and then DELIVER real results — along the way becoming a more fulfilled, more satisfied, and more successful doctor — a rescued one.Doctors today aren't just patient healers — they're system healers, the connectors between management and patients, research and clinics — the bridge carrying medicine forward into the future. To rescue health care, and make things better — for patients and for society — it's imperative that we Rescue The Doctor."Pramstaller and Smith offer doctors a clear and useful roadmap to accomplish the patient work that they aspire to. When doctors reframe, translate, and deliver, they rescue themselves and serve their patients. This rescue has implications for doctors, patients, policy makers, and administrators throughout the health care system. The authors do an exceptional job of adapting management principles to physician opportunities."-- Dave Ulrich, Rensis Likert Professor of Business, University of Michigan
