April 26, 2005: Great book that helps parents make an informed decision regarding the health of their children. I see too many parents who just 'believe' because of tradition that they need to use medicine to keep their children healthy. This book educates parents on the truth of medicine and what it can and cannot do. I give it to parents in my practice to read all the time.

December 19, 1999: This book is a must if you have kids. It helps you to know when your child needs to see a doctor. It also helps you to realize we shouldn't go into their office with blind faith. It equips you with the knowledge you need to make sure your doctor is treating your child and not treating you, the worried parent. It gave me peace of mind.
