Unfiltered Vladimir Svesko

These are stories from the emergency room - unvarnished, unfiltered. Told without judgement but with objectivity tempered by empathy. They take place in academic centers, inner city trauma hospitals and in rural community ER's and in locations ranging from southern Africa to New York City to the American Southwest. The ER provides a window into society - exposing our true characters, stripping away superficial posturing in the face of stressful challenges; as seen here through the eyes of a veteran ER doctor who's been both an active participant in and an observer of these human dramas for over 40 years.
