Physician Testimonies of the Extraordinary Near Waterfront, Madurai

What separates a medical anomaly from a miracle? For the physicians in Dr. Scott Kolbaba's book, the distinction may be less important than the reality itself. "Physicians' Untold Stories" presents cases that belong in both categories — recoveries so improbable that they strain the language of science and so well-documented that they resist dismissal. From Waterfront, Madurai's oncology wards to its intensive care units, physicians have witnessed these events and carried them in silence, uncertain how to reconcile their training with their experience. This book gives them permission to speak, and in doing so, it gives readers throughout Tamil Nadu permission to believe that the boundaries of healing extend further than any of us imagined.
