About the Book
Humor is there to be found in all walks of life, but is frequently overlooked by "serious" medical practitioners. Finding and using humor appropriately can make both patient and physician feel better. It just changes them somehow.
In this collection of tales from his medical studies and practice, Dr. Charendoff shares with us his humorous outlook on life and the practice of medicine. Through reading his adventures, we learn how to look at the lighter side of things.
About the Author
Morris Charendoff is almost as serious about humor as he is about his work. He has been practising medicine as an orthopaedic surgeon since 1954. He currently provides consulting services and second opinions, and contributes occasional articles to the Medical Post. He lives in Toronto, Ontario with his wife.
