A doctor’s fascinating view of what medicine was, and what it has become.

Thomas first learned about medicine by watching his father practice in an era when doctors comforted rather than healed.

Looking back upon his experiences as a medical student, young doctor, and senior researcher, Thomas notes that medicine is now rich in possibility and promise.
