1: You...the Smart Patient
This is a must-read before another visit to the doctor's office or any hospital. Just reading it gives YOU a sense of empowerment. It's loaded with common sense information designed to guide YOU into becoming more proactive in your own health care. Keep it handy.

2: Incredibly useful for the newly diagnosed
I bought this book some time ago, but never got around to reading it until I needed the information urgently. I read it cover to cover before passing it on to a family member recently diagnosed with cancer. It was incredibly useful and empowering while navigating the healthcare system for an new problem. We used many of the suggestions from the book during a hospital visit.
The sections on researching a hospital and getting a second opinion had the most dramatic impact on us. Using the recommendations in the book, we were able to find a leading specialist not too far away who had a treatment plan that was less grim (no radiation or chemo) with a better prognosis! Even if we hadn't had such a positive outcome, the book would have been just as useful in that it provides guidance on how to proceed during a very difficult time.

5: A must for every patient
This very patient-friendly book is great for anyone navigating the healthcare system. It's accessible for people of all education levels and provides excellent information on how to keep yourself and loved ones safe.
