"Don't be afraid to question professionals. There is never a right answer, just a better answer. Get educated, ask questions. Have a doctor who will listen and advocate for you."
"Fascinating book illustrating a doctor's compassion and accompanying uncertainty of diagnosis and treatment in several cases (including himself and his infant son). He does come off as something of a hero but for me, the medical details were so interesting that I couldn't put it down."
"Excellent book. Dr. Groopman truly encapsulates what it takes to be a real doctor: going beyond knowledge to meet the non-clinical needs of his patients. In addition, his vigilant reassessment of his decisions and judgements are an example for all those who partake in doctoring. Dr. Groopman is not merely a physician but also a healer!"
