From the chiropractor-turned-physician to the JD/MD, I really enjoyed seeing the world from the eyes of so many talented people, and learning from the insights they’ve made along the way."

White Coat Wisdom is about more than pills and prognosis. Each chapter is a real life guide for how doctors and patients can establish the practice of medicine as a safe place with a common purpose…. healing, empathy and understanding.

“I’ll bet that I am the only guy you know who gave your book as a Valentine gift to his wife. Sue absolutely loves it. She knows some of the docs in it, and is reading it voraciously every night.”

“This morning I finished your book. Thank you for writing it. Leaving behind all these interesting people is done with mixed emotions. It’s somewhat like moving to a new community, leaving behind old friends, while looking forward to the next book (in this case) or the also enjoyable folks in the new neighborhood. As I read the book, it gave me time to reflect on many little medical and doctor anecdotes in my own life.”
