The People's Hospital

Doctor Ricardo Nuila is the author of the non-fiction book The People's Hospital: Hope And Peril In American Medicine. The author is a doctor at the Ben Tuab, a county hospital in Houston, Texas. He writes about five patients. Hi writes very well about his patients and, by the way, they all gave him permission to write their stories. In between these very personable stories about real people, he includes lectures on insurance companies, politicians, Obamacare, and the pharmaceutical companies. Those lectures were pretty boring but the patient stories were great.
