Original Airdate: Nov. 2, 1999
City: St. Louis, Mo.
Hospital: Barnes-Jewish Hospital
Doctor Profile: Dr. Tim Buchman
Case Study: Head of Steel

The Level I trauma center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital has to be prepared to deal with just about anything, from riverboat accidents to motorcycle accidents, from bullet wounds to intestinal obstructions. The population it serves — and the traumas that bring them there — reflect the diversity of the city. Whether victims of drive-by shootings, rural car crashes, or on-the-job accidents, patients brought to Barnes-Jewish are likely to be the most seriously hurt or sick.
