Diagnosis: Solving the Most Baffling Medical Mysteries [Sanders, Lisa] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Diagnosis: Solving the Most Baffling Medical Mysteries

Review: Great read - Great read. Highly recommend. Read it through audible
Review: Interesting and Instructive Medical Stories - Dr. Sanders gives readers 53 brief medical stories involving rare medical conditions, and efforts to make an accurate diagnosis. Each story is only a few pages long, but provides a good summary. I suspect that readers who are not medical professionals will be amazed at the difficulties various doctors had solving each medical "mystery". I gave this book 4 instead of 5 stars because I wanted to see more overall analysis from the author about the problems with doctors' decision-making processes when trying to make a diagnosis.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Even Zebras Need Their Day
*by A***R on October 30, 2019*

I’ve been a fan of Dr Sanders’ Diagnosis columns in the New York Times where she tackles medical mysteries and seeks out the wisdom of the crowd (AKA crowd-sourcing). There is a similar column in the Washington Post called “Medical Mysteries” which similarly discusses those cases that doctors call zebras (from the dictum that if you hear hoof beats behind you think a horse and not the more unusual zebra) and on occasion, also does a crowd-source. But back to Dr Sanders book. Besides the writing, what I most enjoyed about the book that each patient’s story was short and to the point, not a lot of meaningless fluff. And the book also made a nice companion to the (late 2019) series on Netflix series “Diagnosis.” I enjoyed this book just as much as I enjoyed her previous book (not reviewed since it was a hardcover and I read it long ago — probably worth a re-read), Every Patient Tells a Story: Medical Mysteries and the Art of Diagnosis. She was a medical consultant for the late great TV show House and, as I recall, when I read that book, I was rather reminded of House as I was reading the book. The bottom line is, if you love medical mysteries as I do, especially zebras and other exotic disease presentations, then this is definitely the book for you. I gave it five enthusiastic stars and really can’t wait to re-read it.
