A Yankee Doctor In the Bible Belt: A Memoir.

 

Dr. Tamaren, who practiced medicine for 20 years in rural Kentucky, shares her adventures (and misadventures) in a humorous memoir of small-town doctoring.

 

"I had finally finished my training. I was done with the Big City Hospital and the 80-hour weeks as a resident. I could pick up the pieces of my life at home and maybe see my children on a regular basis. Accepting the position as a physician in a rural community that required an hour-long drive from where I currently lived became a treat—no calling Dr. Tamaren on the overhead paging system that blasted through the hospital. The peace of the countryside was a gift."
