Over Here (ePub)

This is an unusual and fascinating story of a young foreign medical school graduate who is beginning his four years of specialty training during the 1960s in a large County Hospital. OVER HERE picks up where Bobs first book, OVER THERE leaves off, which with humor, poignancy, and spectacular photography, colorfully described his fascinating six years of medical school in Switzerland. This new book follows Bob through his entire medical career which includes many aspects of his personal life, family illness, his successes and his personal failures. The reader will get a very unique insight into the mind of a young practicing physician as he confronts the many challenges of an evolving medical delivery system as well as those of his personal and professional life. You will read about the emergency ambulance rides he was required to make during his internship as well as some of the more interesting emergency room cases he treated and how he eventually founded and ran a very successful group practice. Be intrigued when you read about Bobs very unique and extraordinary interests outside his practice of medicine. Dr. Schoenfeld is married and has three children and four grandchildren. He maintains a strong interest in photography, both traditional and creative and has had two successful photographic exhibits in one of New Yorks most prestigious art galleries, the National Arts Club in Gramercy Park.
