Crisis Calls for Doctors to Embrace New Paradigm and Ancient Hippocratic Prescription By: Laura Bruzas

Chicago Premier: The Vanishing Oath May 25, 2010



I can't begin to tell you how passionate I am about getting this message out to the public! Research indicates that 50% of American physicians have one foot out the door of clinical medicine. There is a murmur underground...doctors are prepared to burn their white coats and walk away from medicine altogether. Physicians vehemently oppose the current state of health care "reform". I am fortunate to have found a beautiful and poignant documentary film produced by Ryan Flesher, MD and Nancy Pando, LICSW of Crash Cart Productions that clearly and poignantly removes the veil of silence and exposes the plight of the American physician. In “The Vanishing Oath” Dr. Flesher takes a courageous and heartfelt look at himself, his profession and the fundamental meaning of medicine. By exploring the entrenched yet growing number of obstacles that doctors face on a daily basis, Dr. Flesher becomes one of the few American physicians to speak openly and clearly about our critically wounded health care system.
