Review # 1 was written on 2017-09-28 00:00:00 Jeffrey Tobish I enjoyed this book more than I expected to, though it isn't quite what I thought it would be. From the description, I expected more reflection on the authors' experiences in the field and on lessons learned: this is really more a book of case studies. The stories included are highly readable, and do not always have a Hollywood ending, but I really appreciated the way that the doctors treated their patients with heart and respect (something that I feel has been lacking in healthcare in my personal experience). Not always easy, but an interesting read.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-06-25 00:00:00 Susan Conzelman This is an uplifting book that relates several instances where two doctors relate how much they learned from their patients simply because they took time to listen. This book gave me a breather from the negativity in the news. I recommend it highly.
