Summary:
When Dr. Sanjay Gupta travels the world for CNN to report on natural disasters, conflicts, and catastrophes, he illuminates the stories of the affected and the afflicted. But a few times in his career, while reporting abroad, he's been asked to don his surgeon's cap and gloves to intervene in high-stakes medical emergencies. Far from his controlled and highly regulated operating rooms, Gupta found himself trying to save lives in the most makeshift and trying conditions. Fueled by the potent combination of adrenaline and experience, he races against the clock to try to give patients a second chance. Paging Dr. Gupta brings you on high-octane thrill rides through Iraqs war-torn deserts and Haitis earthquake rubble, where the renowned medical correspondent reported amid tremendous chaos. When hes unexpectedly brought in to operate, the patients and their stories transform Gupta, elevating his sense of purpose and driving home what matters most.
