Publisher's Synopsis
Chris Alroe plots out a controversial medical career spanning over four decades in many areas of generalist and specialist practice from the medical emergencies of the outback to the jungles of New Guinea. He retires at a crisis point in medicine at the top and public at the bottom.
- A loved one is rushed to hospital in an emergency and dies while waiting on the ambulance ramp.
- Doctors are struck off or sued in the process of providing decent medical care.
- Mentally ill are locked up and maybe even killed without any legal protections.
- You are taken to a rural hospital in an emergency and are examined by a computer screen instead of by a doctor.
This Must Not Happen Again calls for people who run health to stop the corruption and waste and fix a rapidly failing health system.
