Bohdan "Ben" Darnobid was a early pioneer in a new mid level medical field in 1978, not a nurse and yet not a doctor. At the time of his graduation from a PA program not much was known about Physician Assistants, what they were able to do and not do. It was unsure if they would be accepted by the community, nurses and physicians. The book begins at Sing Sing prison, one of the most famous prisons in the world. The author shares important personal accounts about working as PA (Physician Assistant) in the New York State Department of Corrections where he worked for thirty five years. The book offers a fascinating insight to a world that most people know little about.
