Better: A Surgeon Notes on Performance by Atul Gawande

BATB score: 8/10 🩺

I’ve learnt a shit ton about the flaws in the healthcare sector! But this book is not a kind read for everyone.

Best as: a doctor’s data driven analysis regarding how messed up the medical industry really is - from doctors not washing their hands, pregnancy labor with the old-school forceps is better than a c-section, keeping the soldiers alive within the first hour of attack, doctors’ self-defined salary - so how much do you want to get paid, to making due with cheap or the lack of equipments in India 🤯

Best for: in another life I wish to be a doctor and make my Asian parents proud 👩‍⚕️🩻🩺🚨

Best as: a very niche book dissecting into the healthcare industry (I love these stuff!) but do checkout Atul Gawande’s more famous book “Being Mortal” first and foremost
