Customer Reviews

5 out of 5 stars Great Answers for Tough Questions, January 5, 2000

  Reviewer: A reader from Illinois

Is one of you SICK? " This book not only helps you respond to many of the most frequently asked and toughest questions, but helps give you confidence in responding to your patients, whatever the question.
