About The Book I was not even out of medical school before I witnessed my first doctor commit murder. It would not be my last - Lord, no - but I can recall that night as vividly as though it happened last week. Few medics forget their first physician homicide. Praise for 'Paramedic Heretic': 'With health care front and center in today's headlines, Mr. McDonald's voice is an important one, now more than ever. He reveals a number of disturbing realities. We might want to pay close attention to what this gentleman has to say.' - Dr. Max Harry Weil, Founder, Weil Institute of Critical Care Medicine About The Author K. Patrick McDonald is a graduate of UCSD La Jolla School of Medicine's original Advanced Field Medicine program.

He writes, 'After 30 years of occasionally saving lives, I learned that by writing and speaking, I can do more good for more citizens, while tolerating far fewer medical-political snollygosters.'
