  • Enjoyable to hear where the basis of his book came from. The languaging that he uses to describe the process of learning medicine and surgery and the doctor-patient relationships has universal themes for physicians. He describes the suffering we witness blended with the astonishing excitement that a physician feels as he cares for a patient and delves into their disease. Its like experiencing medicine for the first time and it touches something deep in the physicians's soul.

  • I am reading tennis partner right now. and am a medical student who is originally from south india. I am totally fascinated by dr verghese's writing. i am really glad to see this interview
