A “finely gifted writer” shares 15 “brilliantly written episodes covering the years from studenthood to the end of medical residency” at Bellevue Hospital (Oliver Sacks, MD, author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat).

Singular Intimacies is the story of becoming a doctor by immersion at Bellevue Hospital, the oldest public hospital in the country—and perhaps the most legendary. It is both the classic inner-city hospital and a unique amalgam of history, insanity, beauty, and intellect. When Danielle Ofri enters these 250-year-old doors as a tentative medical student, she is immediately plunged into the teeming world of urban medicine: mysterious illnesses, life-and-death decisions, patients speaking any one of a dozen languages, and overworked interns devising creative strategies to cope with the feverish intensity of a big-city hospital.

Yet the emphasis of Singular Intimacies is not so much on the arduous hours in medical training (which certainly exist here), but on the evolution of an instinct for healing. In a hospital without the luxury of private physicians, where patients lack resources both financial and societal, where poverty and social strife are as much a part of the pathology as any microbe, it is the medical students and interns who are thrust into the searing intimacy that is the doctor-patient relationship. In each memorable chapter, Ofri’s progress toward becoming an experienced healer introduces not just a patient in medical crisis, but a human being with an intricate and compelling history. Ofri learns to navigate the tangled vulnerabilities of doctor and patient—not to simply battle the disease.

Worth the money
Size: Large
My dogs love these! I was buying them on Chewy, but there a little cheaper on Amazon. I guess they're flavored because both of my dogs love to chew on them. They hold up pretty well too.

My dog loves this
Size: Large
This was a great product for a chewer dog. My Pitt bull chewed this toy for a long time. My only complaint would be in the process of chewing some areas became pointy and cut his gums slightly. It didn’t seem to bother him but the blood on the white toy was disturbing to me.

Sturdy and favorite chew toy
Size: Large
Golden retriever puppy favorite chew toy. All the curves and edges make him so happy he closes his eyes when he chews it. Family dogs come over and always want to steal it from him. Extremely sturdy too. Only downside is I think it is paper waded up on the floor from a distance. Haha.

THE Most Important Toy
Size: Large
My dog refuses to play with toys. She’s a rescue, so I’m not sure what her past has involved, but she doesn’t pay attention to any toys. Except this one. This is her 4th one- I buy a new one when she chews it beyond recognition, and she still loves it. (For time reference- I’ve had her 9 years, so we go through one roughly every 4 years.) My brother’s late dog also would only play with these. Something about the dinosaur shape- it’s magical!
