Miracles & Mayhem in the ER

Unbelievable True Stories from an Emergency Room Doctor

By: Dr. Brent Rock Russell

Narrated by: Al Kessel

In Miracles and Mayhem in the ER, Dr. Brent Russell shares true-life stories of his early days as an emergency room doctor. Contemplative and oftentimes hilarious, Dr. Russell leads the listener through the glass doors and down the narrow halls of the ER where desperate patients, young and old, come to get well. Occasionally heart wrenching and always fast-paced, Miracles and Mayhem in the ER will have listeners holding their breath one second and celebrating the next. Through his night shifts at a renowned Portland, Oregon, hospital, Russell discovers his role and his confidence as he treats people from all walks of life, including humanity's most bizarre, in the ER. Each shift brings a new, bracing story to tell.

HYSTERICAL. MOVING. OVERALL A FANTASTIC READ.

both hysterical and moving. GREAT BOOK. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. there should be more doctors like Dr. Russell in the world!!💜❤💚

Loved it!

This was a very enjoyable book. I look forward to more books by Brent Rock Russell. I also enjoyed the narrator AL Kessel.

Good while doing something boring, terrible accents

Meh. I was on a streak of listening to medical stories and this one just wasn't as well written as the others.

Meh.

Really wasn't anything special. The narrator was generally good, but the accents he gave a lot of people sounded like he was trying to make them seem intellectually disabled. The book itself had as much of the content focused on the author's many outdoor adventures as it did on actual stories of his experience in the ED. . He seemed to try to bulk up the volume of the book by using a LOT of metaphors, including what it was like to drive in traffic. Several of the stories were entertaining, but I wouldn't recommend this to someone with experience in emergency medicine

Very good!

One of the best in critical medicine. Loved it from the beginning to the end.
