Dr. Sweet is an Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, and a prize-winning historian with a Ph.D. in medical history. For over twenty years she practiced medicine at Laguna Honda Hospital in San Francisco. In her first book, God's Hotel: A Doctor, a Hospital, and a Pilgrimage to the Heart of Medicine (Riverhead, 2012), she laid out her evidence—in stories of her patients and her hospital—for some radically new ideas about medicine and healthcare. She was a Guggenheim Fellow for 2014-2015. In 2017 she published what The New York Times calls her "wonderful new memoir," Slow Medicine: A Way to Healing, where she used her life as a doctor to show the Way of Slow Medicine, which is thoughtful, methodical, and personal. Her new book, Convictions: A Story of Medicine in the 21st Century, is a fictionalized account, based on court cases, patient stories, doctor memoirs, and her own experiences as a physician, of what is going on in healthcare today, behind the scenes.
