Douglas Farrago MD is a retired family doctor from Forest, Va. He was one of the pioneers in the Direct Primary Care movement and has written three books on it. He is board-certified in the specialty of Family Practice. He is the inventor of a product called the Knee Saver which is currently in the Baseball Hall of Fame. The Knee Saver and its knock-offs are worn by many major league baseball catchers. He is also the inventor of the CryoHelmet used by athletes for head injuries as well as migraine sufferers. From 2001 - 2011, Dr. Farrago was the editor and creator of the Placebo Journal which ran for 10 full years. Described as the Mad Magazine for doctors, he and the Placebo Journal were featured in the Washington Post, US News and World Report, the AP, and the NY Times. Douglas Farrago, MD received his Bachelor of Science from the University of Virginia in 1987, his Masters of Education degree in the area of Exercise Science from the University of Houston in 1990, and his Medical Degree from the University of Texas at Houston in 1994. Dr. Farrago still blogs every day on his web-site Authenticmedicineplacedoeherecom and lectures worldwide about the present crisis in our healthcare system and the effect it has on the doctor-patient relationship. He retired from clinical medicine in October, 2020. True Tales of the ridiculous, the silly, and the just plain weird cases doctors face, lampooning the medical bureaucracy that makes practicing medicine and getting medical care such a headache. Doctors have a sick sense of humor. This is the deep, dark, and hilarious secret of the medical profession revealed by the irreverent Dr. Douglas Farrago in his popular satirical magazine, Placebo Journal, affectionately known by its thousands of fanatic readers as MAD magazine for doctors and called, by U.S. Newsplacedotherecom, raunchy, adolescent, and very funny. Now, in The Placebo Chronicles, Dr. Farrago has compiled the best of the most outrageous and uproarious true stories to come out of the ERs and examination rooms of doctors all over the country. Submitted by actual physicians, these are the stories they tell each other at cocktail parties and in doctors' lounges, trading sidesplitting and truly unusual tales of their most embarrassing medical moments, the grossest things they've ever seen in medicine, their favorite Munchausen patients, and much more, including The X-Ray Files , mind-boggling anecdotes and images of the oddest foreign objects doctors have removed from patients. Not for the faint of heart, the humor in The Placebo Chronicles is brutally funny, just what the doctor ordered to guard against the ill effects of an M.D.'s worst enemies: the Medical Axis of Evil, a.k.a. drug companies, HMOs, and malpractice insurers. Fully illustrated with fake advertisements, for pseudopharmaceuticals like OxyCotton Candy and Indifferex (the mediocre antidepressant), this refreshingly honest collection invites doctors and patients alike to share the laughter, a liberal dose of the very best medicine.

PUBLICATION DATE: MAY 20.4 out of 5 stars, 'an exciting and tumultuous tale . call[s] to mind Mark Twain's dryly hilarious sketches of the characters he encountered on the American frontier.' -- Foreword ReviewsWatt O'Hugh the Third has been many things in his life: Time Roamer, Civil War soldier, orphan of the New York slums, Wild West dime novel hero, and the only true love of the beautiful socialite Lucy Billings. But by August of 1878, he is naught but a wanted fugitive, a drunken wreck and an angry army of one. Spending his days in the shade of an abandoned Death Valley shack, poring over maps, imagining a way to destroy his enemies and march out of their city carrying their heads on flaming spears. Plotting a solo military conquest that he knows cannot and will not ever succeed.Until the day that Hester Smith beats down his such-as-it-is door and offers him his dreams of revenge against the monstrous Sidonian regime that has destroyed his life -- and one last chance at redemption.But first there is the matter of a rather urgent train robbery with which she needs his help, and, more to the point, the help of his ghosts .
