Offering examples of how to make medicine better for the healers and those they serve, If I Betray These Words profiles clinicians across the country who are tough, resourceful, and resilient, but feel trapped between the patient-first values of their Hippocratic oath and the business imperatives of a broken healthcare system. Doctors face real risks when they stand up for their patients and their oath; they may lose their license, their livelihood, and for some, even their lives. There's a growing sense, referred to as moral injury, that doctors have their hands tied-they know what patients need but can't get it for them because of constraints imposed by healthcare systems run like big businesses.
