Choosing Your Doctor: Twenty Critical Check Points

When George LeMaitre was a young man he went on house calls with his physician-father. He learned there is more to practicing Medicine than dispensing pills; that disease is best understood when the patient and environment are known to the physician; that he must teach patients healthy living while managing their illnesses. How many times have you chosen a physician only to discover perhaps too late that she didn t respond as you expected? Dr. LeMaitre has written a valuable book to help you make an intelligent choice of a good doctor. His advice is tempered with humor, personal stories, and a good dose of his own philosophy about the doctor-patient relationship.
