Jerome A. Kessler, M. D., graduated from the University of Minnesota Medical School in 1980, completed residency training in North Dakota, and then started a private practice in 1986. He spent 19 years taking care of patients in Sidney, Montana, a town of 5000 people, before taking a medical retirement in 2005. He is one of only a few physicians to be board-certified in three specialties: Internal Medicine, Family Practice, and Geriatrics. He is a devoted husband and father. He loved his patients as much as any patient can, but had to leave medicine before it drove him completely crazy. This is a short novel that portrays the personal and professional life of a retired small town doctor, and includes his struggles with Bipolar Disorder.
