Each year on the third Thursday in March, more than fifteen
thousand graduating medical students exult, despair, and endure
Match Day: the result of a computer algorithm that assigns students
to their hospital residencies in almost every field of medicine.
The match determines the crucial first job as an intern, and
ultimately shapes the rest of his--or, in increasing numbers,
her--life. Match Day follows three women from the anxious months of
preparation before the match through the completion of their first
full year of internship. Each has long dreamed of becoming a
doctor. Stephanie Chao is beginning her career as a surgeon. Rakhi
Barkowski must balance her husband's aspirations with her own
desire to work in internal medicine. Michelle LaFonda moves forward
in her quest to become a radiologist, but struggles to find
progress in her personal relationship. Each woman makes mistakes,
saves lives, and witnesses death; each must recognize the balancing
act of family and career; and each comes to learn what it means to
heal, to comfort, to lose, and to grieve, all while maintaining a
professional demeanor.Just as One L became the essential book about
the education of young attorneys, so Match Day will be for every
medical student, doctor, and reader interested in medicine: a guide
to what to expect, an insightful account of the changing world of
doctors, and a dramatic recollection of this pressured, perilous,
challenging, and rewarding time of life.
