Healthcare in the US is rapidly changing. The changes that are
occurring as a result of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or
"Obamacare" will forever modify the way in which doctors and
patients interact.This book is a collection of essays that
initially are a heartfelt description of the author's passion for
patient care and an exploration of the "art" of healing. These
essays then go on to explore healthcare reform in the US and how
the proposed (and ongoing) changes in the healthcare system are
likely to impact the practice of medicine and ultimately affect the
doctor-patient relationship. The essays explore ethical concerns
and leave us wondering just how medicine will be practiced in the
future.

Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of both men and
women in the US and Europe today. Over the last 20 years, many
innovations in technology have allowed for improved therapies for
heart attack and stroke and overall outcomes have significantly
improved. Death rates from cardiovascular disease in men are
declining.However, even with these improvements in care, death
rates for women remain unchanged. This book will explore these
gender disparities in care in depth - specific sections will be
devoted to answering the questions of why they are occurring and
what healthcare providers and women can do to effect change and
narrow the gender gap in cardiovascular care.Ultimately, this book
is designed to open the eyes of healthcare providers, medical
professionals and policy makers - as well as potential female
patients - and should serve as a "call to action" to promote better
cardiovascular care for women. Through education, awareness and
advocacy women worldwide will benefit, the gap will begin to close
and better cardiovascular care can be provided for all.
