As I always say, the original books are great to read because they provide a lot of examples. This repetition can help to embed the lessons into your psyche.

Sample Book Insights: #1 Doctors are not superhuman. They are human beings who went through a very demanding and tricky path to become doctors. Some are there only for the money and prestige, but most are there because they want to be important in their patients’ lives and help lots of people. #2 The day-to-day life of a doctor was a mystery to us, but we still wanted to live it. Many doctors, when they finish this journey, are disheartened and disenchanted with the realities of their new careers. They regret their decision and the years they spent (wasted) making it their reality. #3 You must take charge of your health care, and if you do, you could avoid years of suffering and disease. You can convert your doctor back into a curious, eager learner who is willing to work with you by asking him questions and cajoling him into doing more. #4 The most powerful and most deceptive medical lie is that your doctor knows everything there is to know about your health or medicine in general. Your doctor is only as good as the knowledge he possesses and the effort he puts into staying current by looking for further knowledge and updates.

Download or read book Tell Me the Truth Doctor written by Richard Besser and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hey, Doc--Got a Minute?" No matter where Dr. Richard Besser goes, a day doesn't go by without someone stopping him to ask that question. Often, that person is one of the millions who have come to rely on the vital information he shares on Good Morning America, World News with Diane Sawyer, and Nightline. Now, in response to thousands of inquiries from viewers, Dr. Besser has written his first book -- a comprehensive health guide that will both inform and surprise as he deciphers fact from fiction for nearly seventy confusing medical questions, including: "Should I take a daily aspirin to prevent a heart attack, stroke, or cancer?" "If my doctors order a lot of tests, does that mean they're more thorough?" "Do I need thirty minutes of exercise a day to stay healthy?" Recognizing the astonishing amount of misinformation that many important health decisions are based upon, Dr. Besser's commitment to delivering the truth is critical. He isn't afraid to challenge the status quo -- or the interests within the health care industry -- to provide the knowledge you need to take control of your health. Eager to help you make the choices that are right for YOU, he organizes his easy-to-understand answers into six lifestyle categories, including diet and nutrition; exercise and fitness; vitamins, supplements, and medicines; beating illness and injury; and navigating the perplexing world of health care, as well as a chapter dedicated to the questions you wished you asked before your doctor walks out the door. Throughout the book, Dr. Besser smashes myths while translating invaluable information into problem-solving advice you can use, including a "Dr. B's Bottom Line" at the end of each topic. As accessible as it is empowering, Dr. Besser's Tell Me the Truth, Doctor is a necessary addition to every home, office, and dorm room. "Besser . . . ably analyzes popular myths (the "Freshman Fifteen"), considers pros and cons (HRT and statins), and mostly takes unequivocal stands on the issues. . . . Quite often, his comments and suggestions surprise . . . Particularly helpful are his guidelines for avoiding the harmful effects of health care and hospitalization." -- Publishers Weekly Richard Besser, MD, ABC News' Chief Health and Medical Editor, provides medical analysis and commentary for all ABC News broadcasts and platforms, including World News with Diane Sawyer, Good Morning America, and Nightline, as well as many other news/entertainment programs. Since joining ABC News in 2009, Dr. Besser has been at the forefront of news coverage for every major medical story, including the earthquake in Haiti and the Japanese radiation release. He was the leading correspondent on ABC's global health series, Be the Change, Save a Life, and received a 2011 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Investigative Journalism for his World News story on cord blood banking. Besser came to ABC News from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), where he worked for thirteen years, including as acting director from January to June 2009, during which time he led the CDC's response to the H1N1 influenza outbreak. He has taught and trained doctors at the University of California, San Diego and is a visiting fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health. Most important, for more than twenty-five years he has practiced medicine, giving his patients and their families straightforward, commonsense advice.
Download or read book Hype written by Nina Shapiro and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publisher's Weekly Best Book of 2018 A straightforward appraisal of why health myths exist, dispelling many of them, and teaching readers how to navigate the labyrinth of health advice and the science and misinformation behind it. Hype is Dr. Nina Shapiro's engaging and informative look at the real science behind our most common beliefs and assumptions in the health sphere. There is a lot of misinformation thrown around these days, especially online. Headlines tell us to do this, not that—all in the name of living longer, better, thinner, younger. Dr. Shapiro wants to distinguish between the falsehoods and the evidence-backed truth. In her work at Harvard and UCLA, with more than twenty years of experience in both clinical and academic medicine, she helps patients make important health decisions every day. She's bringing those lessons to life here with a blend of personal storytelling and science to discuss her dramatic new definition of “a healthy life.” Hype covers everything from exercise to supplements, alternative medicine to vaccines, and medical testing to media coverage. Shapiro tackles popular misconceptions such as toxic sugar and the importance of drinking eight glasses of water a day. She provides simple solutions anyone can implement, such as drinking 2% milk instead of fat free and using SPF 30 sunscreen instead of SPF 100. This book is as much for single individuals in the prime of their lives as it is for parents with young children and the elderly. Never has there been a greater need for this reassuring, and scientifically backed reality check.

Download or read book The Good Doctor written by Kenneth Brigham and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a good doctor? It's not what you think. A doctor willing to face their own uncertainty in the face of illness and treatment might just be the best medicine. Too often we choose the wrong doctor for the wrong reasons. It doesn't have to be that way. In The Good Doctor, Ken Brigham, MD, and Michael M.E. Johns, MD, argue that we need to change the way we think about health care if we want to be the healthiest we can be. Counterintuitive as it may seem, uncertainty is integral to medicine, and you want a doctor who knows that: someone who sees you as the unique case you are, someone who knows that data isn't everything, someone who is able to change her mind as the information changes. For too long we've clung to the myth of the infallible doctor--one who assuredly tells us this is what's wrong and here is how I will cure you--and our health has suffered for it. Brigham and Johns propose a new model of medicine, one that is comfortable with ambiguity and that centers on an equal partnership between patient and doctor. Uncertainty, properly embraced, opens a new universe of possibilities.

Imagine the following scenario - you've been suffering from migraines ever since the age of 12. They intensify into your adulthood. You go to your doctor who refers you to a neurologist. He doesn't find anything wrong. You're referred to a cardiologist and an eye doctor. You have an MRI scan. You also visit a psychiatrist who declares you suffer from some kind of phobia and puts you on heavy medications. These make you feel blurry and they simply mask the problem. So you're now stuck with an inexplicable headache and a medication that has far more side effects than benefits. This is a real-life, everyday scenario that so many patients go through because they hold blind trust in the medical establishment. After all, doctors are supposed to help us and make us feel better, right? When putting blind trust in doctors, however, we often forget to trust our own bodies and we disregard the signals they're sending our way. With all of the available information, it's easy to start questioning your doctor to ensure correct treatment. Treatments are often wrong or anything but personalized. There are several reasons why: Doctors are human and they make mistakes Medical professionals are often paid or stimulated in other ways to push one type of medicine or another Medical negligence and malpractice are real things - in the US alone, 250,000 people die each year from medical errors or negligence The medical industry is often run by greed and not the patient's best interest Organizational and staffing issues in medical facilities also contribute to problems It's time you take charge of your own health. You can stand against human errors, corruption, medical industry trends and fads that could be killing you or the people you love. Blind Trust in Doctors and Why It's Killing You will open your eyes and show you the main reasons why you need to be in complete control of the medical decisions that concern your wellbeing. The book will highlight essentials like: The power of Big Pharma - why Americans spend more than 3.34 billion dollars on prescription drugs per year Why we have been turned into clients rather than patients who need treatment The lies and deceit behind diets and weight loss programs The opioid crisis - commonly prescribed, these drugs kill 47,000 people per year Big lies about food, about exercise, about wellbeing - you'll find out why you should never go for the low-fat option The number one reason why cholesterol isn't the enemy Best ways to naturally lower your cancer risk Top 13 cancer-causing foods that you are still eating Antibiotics: over-prescribed and often ineffective And much more!

Being in charge doesn't have to be expensive, difficult and it definitely doesn't need to come with nasty side effects.

Download or read book Medical Axioms written by Mark B. Reid and published by Primedia E-Launch LLC. This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: His is the first edition collected tweets of Mark B. Reid, MD, @medicalaxioms. This project began in 2010 as place to share pithy quotes from famous old dead doctors. After running out of good content, I was forced to start making my own. Through the last 7 years, we've engaged in a jolly dialogue on the social media on topics ranging from common diagnostic mistakes to why it's good for a doctor to have a dog. While all the content is mine, it's richness comes as a result of the exchange between me and many other smart medical types on social media. This collection offers an inside look at medical education for students and residents and the observations of a doctor in practice for 20+ years. The statements within are not medical advice and should not be used to practice medicine, make medical decisions, or judge physicians or other healthcare workers. No axiom is true in all circumstances. Medicine is by it's very nature non-binary--there is seldom one right answer for a given situation. The treatment that is good for one patient may easily kill another. Thus the practice of medicine should be left to trained experts who combine book learning, current medical literature, years of supervised training and personal experience to engage in a complicated but maximally effective practice based on medical judgment. It is far easier to judge a single medical decision than to practice good medicine, day in and day out, for years. As you read you will find contradictory statements--sometimes two aphorism directly oppose one another. This is the practice of medicine. We must sometimes hold two contradictory statements in the mind at the same time, hanging on to two competing hypotheses until one or the other becomes more correct. I hope you enjoy these aphorisms but if you find one you don't like or you think you could write better, by all means do so! The instructions are contained within to send me edits and your own aphorisms. It's my intention that reading this book would be an active, not passive, process. It should get you thinking about the rules you use in your practice and their exceptions. I hope it makes you think about how you were taught and what you learned and how you teach others. It is intended to be interactive and I hope you don't agree with everything you read. There is much more style than evidence in a day of seeing patients.
Download or read book My Doctor Said What written by Daniel Sasson and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-18 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You have verrucous lesions, otitis media, and I need to perform a lateral matricectomy."The patient's blank stare makes me realize that I have done it again. I have hurled a barrage or medical jargon at the patient without even thinking about it; it was what I was taught to do."Sorry, you have a wart, an ear infection, and I need to remove your toenail."The mystery is over, and he is visibly less anxious knowing he may actually live through the day.Many people leave the doctor's office with an empty feeling. They do not understand what the doctor was saying. Even with a brief explanation, the medical terminology doctors use is confusing to the brightest of minds. Many medical terms are Latin derivatives and make little sense to even very well-educated people.This book aims to demystify the doctor's visit, simplifies medical terminology, explains diagnostic terms, and lets the reader inside the mind of their doctor. This book will be a valuable tool for readers and their families, and will help them communicate with their doctor.
