The Wandering Jew of St. Salacious
$23.99
What happens when you drop an agnostic Jewish surgeon in a century-old Catholic hospital, where the doctor meets dogma and falls for the CEO? A nun, for God’s sake.
Dr. Martin Fischer, a white-coated Quixote, tilts his scalpel at the bloated underbelly of U.S. healthcare and fights for his patients. His only weapons are surgical skill and a pesky sense of righteous indignation that’s driving everyone nuts—including Marty.
As he takes on a callous multi-billion-dollar medical corporation, a mercenary surgical group, and the thoroughly corrupt CFO of St. Salacious, an unplanned pregnancy threatens to excommunicate the entire hospital. Can they really do that? It’s either stress or God who intervenes. Did Jesus just wink at him from the cross?

About the Author
Ron Turker started in the ’80s as a standup comic and medical student. Through a series of nonlinear events, he became a pediatric surgeon by day and an unrelenting writer by night. And now, an author and audiobook narrator.
*Editor’s Pick*
Turker’s debut is as sharp as the surgeon’s scalpel and jolting as a defibrillator.
“Turker’s own compassion powers the novel, the satire more outraged than outrageous.”
-Booklife-
The Wandering Jew of St. Salacious has it all: humor, drama, romance, and a glimpse behind the scenes at the corporate skullduggery of Big Medicine. I couldn’t read this fast enough.
~John DeDakis
Novelist and former Senior Copy Editor for CNN’s “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer.”
“Both hilarious and heart-wrenching, Turker dives deep into open wounds in today’s healthcare climate.”
– S. Peterman
“Funny, serious, mystical, well written! This book has it all.”
– S. Vincent.
“When a book is so heartfelt, vivid, and inviting that it feels like home, and yet is so unique that it defies categorization, it’s pure magic.”
– G. Fleckenstein
