The Oath of Hippocrates, administered to generations of physicians
as they embark on their profession, begins: "I will look upon him
who shall have taught me this art even as one of my parents. I will
share my substance with him, and I will supply his necessities, if
he be in need. " Despite that solemn promise, we have too often
ignored or neglected the physician in trouble. Even if we could put
aside the human concerns of one physician for an impaired colleague
(can our profession truly permit that?), we must concede that our
society can ill afford it. This book, which has been assembled and
edited by Stephen C. Scheiber and Brian B. Doyle, may be a
lifesaver for the doctor in trouble and will be a health saver for
the population of our country. A land which decried the lack of
physicians a quarter century ago and spent the vast resources to
double the number of graduates in medicine, cannot permit a tenth
of all doctors to be out of commission. That would be a large, and
for the most part preventable, addition to the cost of health care
in America. In this book, Scheiber and Doyle have gathered the
expertise of many psychiatrists who are knowledgeable about the
impaired physi cian."
