Surviving the Business of Healthcare by Barbara Galutia Regis PA-C is an extraordinary, one-of-a-kind book that revolves around healthcare. It is sort of like an educational guide about today's generation's intricate medical system. If you like to read pedagogic books that do not bore you with unnecessary facts and actually keep you entertained while providing knowledge, then you have just discovered your next lucky read.

The book is divided into twenty-nine short chapters, each containing essential content for the current generation's healthcare. Living a life as a physician assistant, the author described her life from a personal and professional perspective. Barbara Galutia Regis also goes as back as the early '70s and explains how hard it was when there was only one local doctor around your area, elucidating the extreme changes in the medical world in these past recent centuries. In addition, the book contains short summaries about different types of hands-on medical players like naturopaths, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, clinical psychologists, and more. Moreover, Regis does not fail to include beneficial advice like "Never assume anything, so double-check medications upon disclosure."

I learned so much while reading this book! For example, two percent of the population get melanoma, and many people have passed away due to drug misuse. I admit, at first, I thought this book would be loaded with complex vocabulary and stuff that only people who are doctors (or relating that career) would understand, but that was not the case at all. The chapters are written in a way even teenagers can read without much difficulty. I applaud Regis for making such an intricate subject feel so easy to comprehend. Moreover, I particularly enjoyed reading about the author's childhood. It made me think about the days where it was common for doctors to visit their patient's homes to treat them. Furthermore, I liked the fact that Regis does not flat-out insult the US Healthcare System, but she does make sure to add her opinions on how to make it better.

The book does not contain any usage of profanity. It is exceptionally edited. I was not able to hit on any grammar errors. I found Surviving the Business of Healthcare educative and filled with treasure in the form of words, and I have no issues with it.

According to the text, I unreservedly give the rating 4 out of 4 stars. I recommend it to people who want to know more about healthcare.
