Zusammenfassung:Hoven talks about how the power of organized medicine can make a difference. Organized medicine has an astounding record of achievements. In the past 166 years, they have delivered the first Code of Medical Ethics, the first standards for medical education and the most widely circulated medical journal in the world. Organized medicine helped physicians fight quackery at the turn of the 20th century, promoted the adoption of modern surgical techniques and battled the disease that has defined Hoven's career: HIV/AIDS.
