Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fast paced.. thrilling
Review: Don Donaldson`s Do No Harm is a suspenseful medical thriller with riveting detail and heart-pounding plot.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: VERY INTENSE
Review: Dr. Sarchi Seminoux, a Memphis Pediatric resident, gets a call from Marge, her nephew's adoptive mother, that they are bringing Drew into the emergency room, and Marge wants Sarchi to be there when they arrive. Drew can't move or talk, but all his vitals are O.K., blood tests are all normal, he is breathing on his own. They put him through all kinds of tests, but they all come back normal. On the seventh day of Drew's hospitalization the HMO steps in and says that they will not pay the hospital bills unless Drew is moved to a clinic in New Orleans. Dr. Latham is a brilliant brain surgeon and he seems to think that he can help Drew, but he refuses to go into any details with Marge or Sarchi. Drew gets his operation, but Sarchi notices some side effects. Sarchi decides to look into Dr. Latham's practices, but as she does, Dr. Latham tries to ruin Sarchi's reputation. Can Sarchi make the hospital and the other Drs. see what Dr.Latham is and how he is harming patients? And can she rebuild her reputation?

Dr. Latham the villain in DO NO HARM and has a god like ego. He really believes that he has the right to use his craft in any way he chooses without, regard to the patient's future, or lack of one. To me this is the worst kind of criminal, but sure makes an interesting character to read about. Sarchi is a very bright heroine who will go to any lengths to make things right for every one. I thought the story line was very intense and has a surprise ending.

Summary: Medical Suspense Thriller Review
Review: I was very impressed with Mr. Donaldson's work. He is a relatively new author writing medical suspense thrillers. In his latest book he takes the reader inside a pediatric training program and introduces him to a young physician who has become very concerned over a patient who develops a strange medical disorder with no apparent cause. It is a page turner you won't want to put down.

I think Donaldson compares closely to other medical suspense writers such as Cook, Gerritsen, and Palmer. Since I am a physician, I can usually read between the lines and discover where the plot is going. I also like accurate real-life medical horror that will make even the educated professional nervous about what is happening. Donaldson does all this and more in his novel. I was impressed with the story from start to finish. An excellent read for sure. Would recommend it to anyone who loves these type of novels.

Summary: Pretty good
Review: One of the best medical thrillers I've read. Intense and fast-paced...couldn't put it down. "Do No Harm" has the right mix of intrigue, scientific explanation, and human emotion. I will definitely look for more by Don Donaldson.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Page-Turner
Review: Really enjoyable. Fast-paced with many twists and turns. Characters are well developed and the storyline is quite believable as well as harrowing. One I read from start to finish in one sitting. I'm buying other titles of Don Donaldson due to the quality and enjoyment I received from Do No Harm.
