Über diesen Titel

 Doctors are taught how to cure people. But they don’t always know how to care for them.

Hardly anyone is happy with American healthcare these days. Patients are getting sicker and going bankrupt from medical bills. Doctors are burning out and making dangerous mistakes. Both parties blame our nation’s outdated and dysfunctional healthcare system. But that’s only part of the problem.

In this important and timely book, Dr. Robert Pearl shines a light on the unseen and often toxic culture of medicine. Today’s physicians have a surprising disdain for technology, an unhealthy obsession with status, and an increasingly complicated relationship with their patients. All of this can be traced back to their earliest experiences in medical school, where doctors inherit a set of norms, beliefs, and expectations that shape almost every decision they make, with profound consequences for the rest of us.

Uncaring draws an original and revealing portrait of what it’s actually like to be a doctor. It illuminates the complex and intimidating world of medicine for readers, and in the end offers a clear plan to save American healthcare. Seelische & Geistige Gesundheit

Kritikerstimmen

“No one is better qualified to write about what ails health care than Robert Pearl. Uncaring ought to trigger a rethinking of the professional culture of American medicine.”—Malcolm Gladwell, author of five New York Times bestsellers
“In Uncaring, Dr. Robert Pearl provides an X-ray examination of the medical profession and how it has both promoted and adversely affected American healthcare. It’s deep, insightful, and can be considered the modern version of what Francis Peabody wrote almost a century ago: ‘The secret of the care of the patient is in caring for the patient.’ We need to get that back.”—Eric Topol, MD, professor at Scripps Research and author of Deep Medicine
“How do so many young doctors who enter medicine filled with idealism and the desire to do good end up decades later as cynical professionals, caring about money, prestige, success—everything but the patient? Dr. Robert Pearl, in this riveting examination of the physician culture, diagnoses the pathologies in the system that too often strips the ‘caring’ out of health care."—Elisabeth Rosenthal, editor in chief of Kaiser Health News and author of An American Sickness
“Uncaring is a brilliant and incisive dive into physician culture, both its seamy underbelly and the moments that inspire. Pearl’s vast experience as a physician steeped in the culture, and as leader of one of the largest healthcare systems in America, allows him to write with authority, yet in a personal and engaging way, and at the end to offer solutions. The result is a wonderful and compelling read.”—Abraham Verghese, MD, professor of medicine, Stanford University, and author of Cutting for Stone
“Uncaring lifts the veil on the deeply conditioned culture that drives American physicians and our multi-trillion-dollar health care system. To solve our biggest challenges, we can’t ignore this elephant in the room, and Dr. Robert Pearl never flinches once. Sunlight is the best disinfectant, and Uncaring illuminates the shadows that many doctors themselves are reluctant to see.”—Zubin Damania, MD, host of The ZDoggMD Show, the internet’s most popular live medical show and podcast

Brutally honest, based on his experience of 20 years running Kaiser Permanente, points the finger clearly what's wrong with US and global healthcare and how to resolve it. When I read the last chapter about 9 questions patients need to ask physicians..I gasped and thought "did he really write this..." What a brave man. Thanks. Dr. Pearl.

Excellent. Must read for patients & professionals
