Why read it?
1 author picked Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was wowed by these completely compelling interconnected short stories by Canadian emergency physician Vincent Lam. Lam deftly chronicles the lives and relationships of a group of medical students as they move through their grueling studies into the sometimes terrifying world of the hospital doctor.
