O knihe

This book describes the many diverse experiences of a very active pediatrician from 1943 to 1988. This story begins when he started to medical school in 1943 and ends with his retirement thirty-seven years later in 1988.
It includes post retirement stints as a Medical Director for a medical software company and being the Medical Director of a commercial plasma collecting center. He vividly describes many different and unusual medical cases including two true Miracles. One occurred in 1952 during the horrendous polio epidemic , "Connie" and the other one in the 1970's, "Thumbelina". These Miracles are described in detail with all of their agonizing twists and turns. Neither patient should have survived with their many complications and circumstances; but with God's grace they did. This book contains unusual and different exotic medical encounters when the author was in Japan in the Army Medical Corps in 1949-50. This book details why and how that he had to become a pseudo-specialist in his early and middle practice years. These fields included such as Neonatology, Endocrinology, Hematology, Nephrology [Kidneys], Family Counseling, and fledgling field of Psychiatry. There were no trained specialist in these fields during those early years. Dr. Oberst portrays a full and productive professional life in many ways which are to describe. This book is an pleasant and interesting read for anyone to enjoy. It contains humor, vivid descriptions, happiness, agonies, and pathos.
