to work with Southam. According to page 130, its states, “...three young Jewish doctors refused,saying they wouldn’t conduct research on patients without their consent.” and then on page 133 Skloot says, “Hyman compared Southam’s study to Nazi research and got affidavits from the three doctors who’d resigned - they described Southam’s research using words like illegal, immoral, and deplorable.” These lines from the text reveal how the doctors felt because of what Southam was doing. Those doctors even resigned and they testified against Southam because they knew what Southam was doing was wrong and they could not stand there and be an accomplice.

He first tries to be accommodating by asking the girl for her name in order to get her to cooperate in opening her mouth, but she does not budge. The doctor assures Mathilda that he has nothing in his hands and that she should open up. “Such a nice man, put in the mother. Look how kind he is to you. Come on, do what he tells you to. He won’t hurt you.” The mother’s helpfulness in assuring the girl that the doctor is trying to help enrages the doctor; as he puts it, “At that I ground my teeth in disgust.” The doctor then shows frustration, “If only they wouldn’t sue use the word ‘Hurt’ I might be able to get somewhere.” (par. 16) Despite this he continues to get his diagnosis. As the doctor reaches again for the girl, she swipes his glasses and the parents light up in embarrassment. They apologize and chastise the girl and assures assure her that he is a nice man. The doctor lashes out to the parents, “For heaven’s sake, I broke in. Don’t call me a nice man to her.” (par. 19) He states to the parents that he is strictly there to check her throat to see if she has diphtheria and that she could die from it. It is apparent at this point that the doctor may not care what the parents and child think of him, just as long as he checks the girls (should it be girl's? I didn't correct you, because I'm not actually sure which is right)

So, it is very important to hire staff that helps create overall health care quality and good outcomes.

The definition of a double agent, the marketplace, and the ethical aspect should be considered when defining a physician’s role as a double agent.

A patient signed an arbitration agreement before he say the doctor for his surgery and the surgery went bad and the patient filed for compensation due to effects from the wrong doings of the doctor. The court ruled that the arbitration agreement could not be upheld. This case shows what could result in someone not being able to read legal papers before they sign or not knowing they have the right to not sign said paperwork. The majority opinion for this case is correct. the wording on the arbitration agreement was one reason as well as the fact that a doctor-patient relationship was present when Mr. King signed said agreement. Also, there are many cases that help to support the majority opinion.

On the topic of Atul Gawande’s novel Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End, an ongoing issue has brought into question what we should do with the elderly and ill that are in need of care. On the one hand, some argue that we should put them in nursing homes and help them seek treatment for their problems because they can no longer take care of themselves. From this perspective, if not taken care of properly, the elderly have a greater chance of being injured. On the other hand, however, others argue that we should allow the elderly to live on their own as long as they maintain a healthy lifestyle. Atul Gawande, one of this view’s main proponents, urges us to realize that no one is immortal and cannot outrun death, but the journey

Starting off with Project 1 this semester was an interesting learning curve for myself. I was worried that I would struggle with this book not being a very avid reader. The Doctors’ Plague was captivating enough that I was not only able to follow along but also able to summarize almost every chapter very well. I wrote my first academic book review; which was very difficult for me to do. I improved my critical thinking skills, and worked on my writing skills as well. I found everything in project 1 to be very helpful, and enjoyable at the same time.
