A year or more ago, I mistakenly placed a review for Gawande's book Better under this title. I have fixed the mix up, and I have now read Complications.
Gawande is pure pleasure to read. His writing is fluid and full of germane examples as he addresses big issues like error and incompetence as well as topics that seem less significant but which he makes worthy of consideration such as blushing and nausea. The headings for each section of the book--Fallibility, Mystery, and Uncertainty--are themat

This book wss filled with about 25 anecdotes flimsily tied together by Gawande's less than inspiring reflections. I have the book in front of me at the moment and I am paging through rereading sections that I noted along the way:

Complications is a book of anecdotes about a surgical resident’s experiences and impressions of the current health care environment. Gawande divides his stories into three sections: fallibility, mystery, and uncertainty. The fallibility section demonstrates that doctors can make mistakes. Some fallibility arises from there being a learning curve. For example, it is hard to do a central line correctly the first time. But for a doctor to learn how to do a central line, he must have a first patient..more

I finished this book about a week ago and the next day my mom fell and f#*$*%* broke her hip. So, this is NOT the type of book to read or even think about when you have someone in the hospital.
Most doctors, especially surgeons, are viewed as infallible but in reality they are just like us. They have bad days, they make mistakes and some of them should really change careers.
The author writes eloquently, with compassion and a clear love for surgery, which made this a fascinating book to delve into

Although I am interested in the medical profession, motivation to learn more about it often elludes me. Gawande was able to keep my attention and present points that I could understand in spite of my limited medical knowledge.
Admittedly, some of his information scared me. After reading some points about surgery, I wondered how I ever allowed anyone to cut into me and place a plate and seven screws in my leg. Also, some of his writing made me squeemish. I had to pause or skip places that became t

I had a great time reading this with Heidi from My Reading Life. The book is broken up into three sections named for ideas that vex doctors - Fallibility, Mystery, and Uncertainty. He looks at the way surgeons are educated, advancements in medicine, hard to pin down diagnoses, and more with a liberal sprinkling of fascinating cases.
The pacing is perfect, there are edge of your seat moments to see if a patient makes it, and he brings up ethical issues that appear in his later books, such

Not quite a 4 star read, but close enough. It's fairly short & does make his major points fairly well. They boil down to medicine isn't perfect.
Doctors are humans, so need to learn & will make mistakes, even with the best intentions. Do I want a doctor to learn on me or mine? Hell no! Gawande admits that he doesn't either & he makes sure they don't, BUT we won't get any new ones if they don't start somewhere. So what's the solution? There isn't a good one. Deal with it.

“Practice is funny that way. For days and days, you make out only the fragments of what to do. And then one day you've got the thing whole. Conscious learning becomes unconscious knowledge, and you cannot say precisely how.”
I have always been intrigued by medicine. I know it’s a scary thought, but inevitably, illness will impact each of us in one way or another. Either we will get sick or somebody we love will get sick. Which is why learning about medicine and healthcare is so important. How

Atul Gawande writes for The New Yorker, and I always read his articles as soon as I spot the by-line. I read 'Better' last year and think it is even, yes, better. But both books have rare qualities. Gawande is a physician who can step back from his ego and write with compassion and insight about the relationship between vulnerable sick people and those whose skill and judgment they are compelled to trust.

An very well written book in which Gawande argues that surgery is an evolving and imperfect art. He begins by describing in compulsively readable detail some occasions during which it has failed its patients. An overarching theme in the book is an idea of what makes a good surgeon; Gawande points out that it's not about innate talent. It's about practice, commitment, a willingless to learn new things, a willingness to teach others, specialization, and perhaps attentiveness to the patient. (I als..more

Fascinating. I only wish Gawande brought a biblical worldview into the topic. It was the missing dimension in many stories—What role does human depravity play here? How could prayer make a difference there? What if we applied basic principles of wisdom in this case? What if the gospel were presented in that one? Man is so complex—body, mind, and spirit so inextricably intertwined—that we're never going to understand the complexities of any one of them without bringing our knowledge of the others..more

Let’s play the “who wants to be horrified” game. Complications made it hard to sleep. Not because of gore necessarily but because it made clear to me that doctors are just people who were given a scalpel. Yes, they have a ton of education but at some point, they must get experience.
In one section Gawande discusses a procedure in which he must put in a central line which goes into a major vein in your chest which can technically kill you. All he tells the patient is that he must put in a central

This was probably the best book I have read for Atul Gawande yet. Atul has a great way of laying out his ideas and experience through story-telling. He takes the reader into journeys around a particular topic very smoothly and in an enjoyable way.
He's got a nice approach to writing. He starts with an interesting introduction on something he wants to discuss and shed light on, lays down the background and fundamentals, without neglecting to convey across any intricacies involved. This often has t

Wow! I loved this and I love Dr. Gawande.
The first section is about how it is necessary for medical residents to learn how to do procedures on people, but how it's just as necessary to sort of glide over that fact with patients. This was the most exciting part of the book because he went over his own early surgeries and the complications that arose.
The rest of the book is about how, even though medicine is a 'scientific' field, it's ultimately human and fallible. My anxiety was high during mos

The timing of this book couldn't have been better. I was able to read it while sitting beside my husband on a beautiful beach in Mexico. Totally relaxed and without interruptions I was able to pepper him with frequent questions. 'What do you think about this? Does he accurately portray residency? What about surgery?' and on and on. I learned so much about medicine and even more about my husband.

A book full of valuable observations and statistics for a reader like myself with pretty much no knowledge about the American medical system that hasn't been gleaned from dramatizations of it on TV or conversations around the politics of it, but at times frustrating in its 'pop'-ness, coming across as either patronizing or amateurish.

I think the thing I liked the most about Complications was that it was really thought-provoking.

I loved this book. The thesis is simple: Medicine is an incomplete, uncertain, mind-bogglingly complex science. But there's also a fair amount of 'Doctors are people, too' and not in the 'cut us some slack' sense, but in the 'everybody makes mistakes' sense. If you have an infallible faith in doctors and medicine, read this book. If you think doctors are just regular Joes who don't know much more than the rest of us, read this book.

This National Book Award finalist REALLY makes you think! It opens your eyes to the imperfections in our system of medical care.
Gawande is a surgical resident (when he wrote it), a thinker and a poet. He uses case histories to explore the thinking, the philosophy, of medicine. He speaks of mistakes and intuition, luck and skill, good outcomes despite bad treatement, and devastating outcomes despite excellent care. This should be required reading for all medical students and regularly re-read by

An exhilarating insight towards a mythical realm that is as much art as it is science. Awe-inspiring tales by a surgeon who wields his pen as he does his scalpel.

May 26, 2019Ellen rated it really liked it
I think my main take-away from this book of essays by the gifted Dr. Atul Gawande is that medicine is not an exact science and surgeons, or doctors in general, are human and not infallible. I never thought of doctors as God but they were certainly high on a stack of pedestals. Gawande shows how disparate the decisions of treatment can be among any given group of doctors. It actually seems a bit frightening to me in that there is not one specific answer that will always fit the criteria for any o..more

In a series of thrilling accounts, Gawande explains the deepest mysteries of work in the medical field. The text toggles between the philosophical issues of decision-making and intuition in the medical field, and countless anecdotes of real patients Gawande has encountered during his years of residency. If you are not easily repulsed by stories of gastric-bypass surgery, screws embedded in people's feet, and flesh-eating bacteria, I would highly recommend this book.

Super interesting view about doctors and the limitations of the medical field. He gives real life examples and admits freely to the lack of complete knowledge and guessing frequently present in medicine. I appreciated the realistic human view of doctors and modern medicine.
Gawande, a surgeon, argues that medicine isn't an exact science and therefore mistakes are inevitable. He then explores the line between that potential for error and the humanity necessary to make doctors good at what they do.
This is a good, interesting read with all sorts of worthy insights, and Gawande is an excellent writer. My only issue with it is that I have Surgery/Hospital Fear, and his anecdotes supporting the message of medicine as not infallible really didn't help that. It's, of cours

“We look for medicine to be an orderly field of knowledge and procedure. But it is not. It is an imperfect science, an enterprise of constantly changing knowledge, uncertain information, fallible individuals, and at the same time lives on the line. There is science in what we do, yes, but also habit, intuition, and sometimes plain old guessing. The gap between what we know and what we aim for persists. And this gap complicates everything we do.” — 180 likes
