Most recent essay


“In this collection of essays, Dr. Campbell pulls the reader into his Milwaukee otolaryngology clinic, the operating room, and his medical work in Kenya. He tells story after story with wonder, humour, and affection. He looks back on his medical training and fantasizes about medicine in the mid-twenty-first century. He lets us in on his unique vantage point on humanity, and does so with such humility and grace that his own humanity is never in question.”

-Martina Scholtens, MD, author of “Your Heart is the Size of Your Fist”






From Dr. Campbell:

I love Dr. Scholtens’ book about her work in a Vancouver, BC refugee clinic! It was one of my inspirations as I put together my book. In addition to being a great writer, she is trained in both family medicine and psychiatry, is a parent, and is a wonderful human being.
