Described by one surgeon as "soul-crushing, diamond-making
stress," surgery on congenital heart defects is arguably the most
difficult of all surgical specialties. Drawing back the hospital
curtain for a unique and captivating look at the extraordinary
skill and dangerous politics of critical surgery in a pediatric
heart center, Michael Ruhlman focuses on the world-renowned
Cleveland Clinic, where a team of medical specialists--led by
idiosyncratic virtuoso Dr. Roger Mee--work on the edge of disaster
on a daily basis. Walk on Water offers a rare and dramatic glimpse
into a world where the health of innocent children and the hopes of
white-knuckled families rest in the hands of all-too-human
doctors.
