In the Trenches
The Daily Grind of Family and Academic Medicine
~ Author Dr. Jason Profetto, MD, CCFP
In the Trenches is thoughtfully told in a unique memoir style featuring short stories and lessons by Hamilton-based family and academic physician, Dr. Jason Profetto. The stories cover a wide array of scenarios from challenging patient interactions to the difficulties and abuse in medical school and residency, as well as life lessons surrounding sleep, nutrition, exercise, and more.
Dr. Profetto has also included some profound insights from Dr. Emily Dewhurst, a former medical student of his and current family medicine resident in Ontario. She not only imparts her own experiences during her medical education to date, she courageously describes her past personal struggles with self-harm and mental health.
As you can see, Dr. Profetto doesn't hesitate to dive into areas of medicine that few comfortably talk about and explore. He shares his journey in a genuine and honest manner, leaving readers with a tangible sense of what the day-to-day life of a dedicated family and academic physician is really like.
Don't wait to sink into the pages of In the Trenches. It's a real eye-opener.
