Book Synopsis
HOW YOU CAN SURVIVE "HEALTHCARE," THE LARGEST AND MOST CORRUPT INDUSTRY IN AMERICA.
Robert Yoho, MD, a top physician, has written this award-winning book to help you see through the lies, handle hospitals, find trustworthy doctors, and master your drugs.
Learn how to avoid disgracefully ineffective and overused treatments such as:
✪ Angioplasty and coronary artery bypass surgery
✪ Low back and endoscopic knee surgeries
✪ Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
✪ Hysterectomies and Caesarean sections
Learn how toxic medications destroy health and how to quit them.
✪ 70 percent of us take prescription drugs, 20% of us more than five
✪ A 6th of us take psych drugs, causing brain damage and early death
✪ Cholesterol medicines are nearly worthless but are used by one in ten
✪ Opioids: millions take them and seventy thousand died in the US of overdoses in 2020
✪ Most cancer treatments are complete failures
✪ Generic medications are often weak or ineffective
Learn how big Pharma sells drugs by faking their studies. Understand the lies they stuff into websites and medical journals. Learn why it all gets ignored (hint: Pharma has the largest criminal settlements in history).
Learn how to conquer healthcare costs. Medical spending per person is double that of other countries and it is the top reason for US personal bankruptcy. I will show you how to escape the over-billing and prosper anyway.
Money short-circuits everyone's integrity. But if you read this book and learn the system, you can find first-rate healthcare at reasonable prices. Pick up your copy of Butchered by "Healthcare" today by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page!

Review Quotes
You are to be commended for tackling an impossible subject. The core premise of the book is on point and timely. The metaphors and analogies are brilliant. I loved your description of statistics-relative versus absolute risk. The writing is excellent.
Jeff Segal, MD, JD
A powerful attack on the status quo. You didn't pull any punches. I think the drug companies might put out a hit on you. The anecdotes and references provide an extra layering of depth to the conclusions. America's health care system does three things very well: make money, make money, and make money. And if along the way some patients get better....well bravo!
Mike Steele, RN, retired from a Veterans Administration hospital
Fascinating... I read your book in a few days. It is lucid and readable. You share some of the same concerns I have had during my medical career. I think the system is so badly corrupted it is going to need to be demolished and replaced de novo. It is founded on the greedy self-interests of numerous competing groups... Unbridled capitalism has no place in healthcare.
Neal Handel, MD, West Hollywood, CA
The most important message in this book is that much of medicine is questionable theory presented as indisputable fact.
Mira de Vries, metzelf.nl, Association for Medical and Therapeutic Self-Determination
At first blush, this book could be called a piece of investigative science journalism, but that would presuppose that the information is difficult to find. Rather, this information is open for all to see, yet we ignore it for political or personal reasons. Dr. Yoho's book is a well written, all-encompassing wake-up call for our dysfunctional and corrupt healthcare system. I hope it will also motivate individuals to take more responsibility for their own health.
Paul Johnson, D.O.
A compelling and thought-provoking analysis of the American health system and all of its flaws. A FINALIST and highly recommended!
The Wishing Shelf Book Awards
This is not only a fascinating read, it's rather horrifying as well. Of course, where there's money to be made, corruption will follow. And it's no different in the medical profession. I'd recommend this to anybody trying to navigate the costly American health system. It might help them not get so badly ripped off.

I lived in North America for 20 years and I agree wholeheartedly with this author. It's refreshing to see somebody trying to shine a light on such a corrupt system.
Female reader, aged 52
A system of self-interest superbly dissected by this author's book. A thoroughly fascinating read that seems well-researched.
