    Book Club Meeting - Join us November 6! 

    The Scott County Medical Society Book Club will be meeting next on November 6, at 7:00 pm. 

    The September book read is The Tennis Partner, by Abraham Verghese.

    An unforgettable, illuminating story of how men live and how they survive, from the acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of Cutting for Stone.

    When Abraham Verghese, a physician whose marriage is unraveling, relocates to El Paso, Texas, he hopes to make a fresh start as a staff member at the county hospital. There he meets David Smith, a medical student recovering from drug addiction, and the two men begin a tennis ritual that allows them to shed their inhibitions and find security in the sport they love and with each other. This friendship between doctor and intern grows increasingly rich and complex, more intimate than two men usually allow. Just when it seems nothing can go wrong, the dark beast from David’s past emerges once again—and almost everything Verghese has come to trust and believe in is threatened as David spirals out of control.

    To get involved and contribute to the next book choice, please reach out to Seth Brown or Ryan Roberts.
