Bitter Medicine, A Doctor's Year in Vietnam

, â€œBitter Medicine,â€ recalls a disturbing time of great contention and bitterness. But it is a personal story. It is the story of leaving my family, my perspective of the Vietnamese culture, the politics, and combat seen as a young physician. I earned my â€œstreet credâ€ as an army doc during the Vietnam War. As with the other physicians called into service, I was the unlikely soldier. My book is poignant and often humorous. We needed the humor to survive. I would never have volunteered for such a traumatic experience, yet I canâ€™t say, â€œI wish Iâ€™d never gone to Vietnam.â€ I believe this experience had a major positive effect on molding me into who I am today. In the words of a Special Forces soldier, he described this sentiments accurately; â€œI wouldnâ€™t go back to Vietnam for a million dollars. On the other hand, I wouldnâ€™t have given up the experience for a million dollars.â€
