Dear Reader, For all the awe-inspiring medical stories we might hear and the hospital dramas that dominate the ratings on television, most of us have no conception of the daily, Herculean efforts of trauma surgeons. All Bleeding Stops is a gripping, firsthand account of life as a trauma surgeon. As you'll learn, a good trauma surgeon must be a conductor presiding over an orchestra of healthcare providers as their patients cling to life by a thread. They have an encyclopedic knowledge of medical science and are practiced in the art of instinctively reacting to whatever emergency comes flying at them on a stretcher. This book pulls back the curtain to clarify such questions as: What exactly is a trauma surgeon, and what does one do? How does a trauma center function, and what really goes on in the operating room? How do you mold a medical student into a surgeon who can stay cool and act decisively when a patient’s life hangs in the balance? All Bleeding Stops is a book that you will not be able to put down as Dr. Cohn tells tales from his career as a military surgeon in the U.S Army Medical Corp in Desert Storm and in trauma centers across the country including high-profile medical stories.
