Excerpt from Medical Chaos and Crime
How well-founded these vague but intuitive fears were, Mr. Cleveland probably never knew, and neither will the general laity until the searchlight of publicity has been turned into the darkest corners of this modern chamber of horrors.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exposà of graft and unethical practices within the medical profession in the United States, a practice the author argues that not only degrades the practice of medicine but contributes to the physical and moral deterioration of the American people. The author, a critic of the American Medical Association, laments that commercialism and criminality have become entrenched in the profession, especially in cities. The author presents numerous case studies to show the extent of the problem including stories of risky or unnecessary procedures performed on patients under the guise of profit and patient exploitation and abuse at the hands of medical practitioners, exposing a contemptuous disregard for the dignity and wellbeing of those in the care of supposed medical professionals. The author argues that these issues have become so pervasive that medical education must be reformed, and that the profession must become more accountable to the public. The author concludes that these problems are not universally present, but that the trend is moving in a negative direction. The author calls upon the public to demand greater accountability and transparency from the medical profession in order to reverse this troubling trend.
