Synopsis "The Trouble With Medicine: Bad Behavior and who Gets the Money"

This is the autobiographical journey of a female anesthesiologist in the American healthcare system where greed and lust for more is controlling everything we do. Are you tired, frustrated, and angry with the healthcare industry? Do you feel like you aren't getting the care you need even though you have health insurance? You are not alone. The Trouble with Medicine takes you on the journey of one female physician from growing up in Appalachia to becoming a medical doctor. Dr. Sheryl Walker courageously speaks up for those who feel like they can't or fear retribution if they do, as she shares her journey from medical education and residency training to working life thereafter. She describes gender discrimination, socioeconomic discrimination, specialty discrimination, and sexual harassment in the medical profession as well as the painful anatomy of a lawsuit in this deeply personal autobiographical account of what humans, and especially women, have had to endure during this process. Dr. Walker describes the disparities in healthcare as experienced by her family in an underserved area of America, as well as the disparities in patient care that she observed over nearly 50 years as a professional healthcare provider. She also delves into how the medical profession became the medical industrial complex, how many doctors have become slaves to bureaucracy, how healthcare dollars are going into personal wealth, and how doctors and hospitals in the early to mid-century shoulder at least some of the responsibility for it. The lingering question remains; can this be fixed? The Trouble with Medicine looks at the questions that must be answered, the complexities involved, and how all of us have a role in fixing the American healthcare system.
