Physician Ricardo Nuila brings the full extent of his passion for people to his narration of his experiences with American healthcare. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss this fascinating deep dive into the safety net system in Houston, Texas, focused on the public hospital Ben Taub. On staff at that hospital, Nuila saw firsthand the destructive aspects of for-profit healthcare and how often those who were truly suffering would end up in his public hospital when it was almost too late. Nulia embraces his emotions as he tells personal stories of real-life cases. What results is a powerful audiobook about what is happening to those who cannot access healthcare.
