John Edward McCarville, is from an Irish farming family of eight
born in Moorland, Iowa in 1926. Stricken with asthma he traveled to
Arizona alone at the age of 17 years. After a draft and discharge
from the Army, he graduated in medicine from Creighton University
in Omaha, Nebraska in 1951. He set up general practice in 1953 next
to an old-fashioned soda fountain pharmacy in Phoenix, Arizona. He
ran a successful practice in family medicine for years before the
advent of managed care. He warned the nation of the dangers of
plastic bags, became an avid pilot and was Flight Surgeon for the
Arizona Army National Guard. Still in practice today, he is one of
the few First Class FAA Medical Examiners in the state of Arizona.
This book describes his Irish heritage, but also details his
experiences and the history of medical care, medicare, universal
healthcare, insurance, technology and the market force dynamics of
the healthcare industry from the depression era until present day.
