Summary: An Important Self-Help Book
Review: Dr. Isadore Rosenfeld steps forward to help those of us who may be in the dark concerning health problems, managed health care, or who may be locked into an insurance company that dictates treatment including physicians, and offers straightforward advice and guidance in order to educate patients as to what their rights are and what they should be asking and receiving. This is an important book for Americans today.

Summary: Supplement it with a medical handbook
Review: I found this book disappointing. I started by looking up breast cancer, a most common female problem. It did not appear in the list of chapters or in the index. I then checked all 27 general references under cancer. In many of the pages just the word 'cancer' appeared with no more information. I could not find any information on breast cancer.
Next I tried prostate cancer but all I found was a mention of this problem at the end of the book under checkups in adult life.
There is, however, a complete chapter of ten pages devoted to Lyme disease, surely not one of the major scourges of mankind. Much of this book is useful but it certainly needs to be supplemented by a good medical handbook.

Summary: A Doctor Who Stands Up For Patients
Review: In times of managed care, Dr. Rosenfeld has the courage to stand up to the insurance companies and empower patients to speak up for themselves. This book tells me what I need to know to be my own advocate for my own healthcare. I recommend this book to anyone who is concerned about their healthcare.
