Does one need to be a doctor to deliver a baby, or to Should only doctors perform physical examinations, or administer anesthesia, or determine when a patient should be discharged from the hospital? These provocative questions strike at the very heart of what it means to be a doctor. Do We Still Need Doctors? offers an incisive look at the doctor's shifting roles and responsibilities in our rapidly changing health care system.
In addition to compelling firsthand accounts from his own medical practice, Lantos covers issues ranging from the growing emphasis on technology as healer and the physicians new role in the team-oriented health care system to the economic forces governing medicine and the limits of moral responsibility for patient care.
