Clinical Resident-Fool

Do you know what clinical residency is? If you don’t, then you definitely should read this book. And if you think you know, you should read it all the more—you’ll get rid of your illusions. And if you’ve ever gone through it, then be sure to read Andrey Shlyakhov’s book “Clinical OrdinaDura.” There will be plenty to remember and compare.

A young doctor, Aleksandr Pryanikov, comes from Tula to Moscow to undergo clinical residency in cardiology at one of the best universities in the country. Hopes are shattered by reality. Attempts to fix reality for the better lead to serious problems not only for the young idealist (or maybe better to say “idiot”?) but also for his parents. Medical mafia has long tentacles… But there are no tentacles that can’t be cut off.

“ Tula gingerbread— they’re like that: want to break your teeth on them, want to drive nails with them,” the main hero, the Count of Monte Cristo of our time, says modestly about himself.

And the last thing you need to know before reading— in the word “ordinaDura” there is no typo.
