Space Doctor by Lee Correy

Paperback, Good Condition

Genre: Science Fiction

Tom Noels set up the first hospital in Orbit . . . and it could be the last!

It would cost 150 lives, more or less, to get the GEO satellite on-line and transmitting solar power to an energy-starved Earth - that was the estimate of fatal industrial accidents in the mammoth space project.

It was Dr. Tom Noel's job to cut that deadly figure drastically, by designing, staffing, and running a complete emergency war . . . 22,400 miles from the nearest hospital. Tom Noels had to re-invent almost every medical technique to allow for weightlessness and the other unknown effects of space, and the other unknown effects of space, and he improvised brilliantly - but not always successfully.

He treated patients who were injured in ways undreamed-of in medical history - including a "bullet wound" from a micro-meteorite - lost some, saved some, and would save many more . . . if only he managed to stay alive himself.
