Patient Confidential Ebook Released

Patient Confidential, Tips and Advice To Keep You Safe As You Navigate the Healthcare System is now available in ebook form, as well as in print. The ebook format is ideal for those who prefer to read on a device and is very handy to take along to the doctor visit or test or to have on the bedside table during that unfortunate hospital stay.

Patient Confidential Is Released

I am excited to announce the release of my new book, Patient Confidential, Tips and Advice To Keep You Safe As You Navigate the Healthcare System. The book draws on my lifetime of healthcare encounters, including over thirty five surgeries and invasive procedures, weeks and weeks in hospitals and all the countless tests, office visits and physical therapy that I have attended. I really hope the book helps people of all ages as they obtain their healthcare, be it minor or major. Click here for more details and to see four endorsements of which I am really proud.

Launch of Patient Confidential

We are getting close to going to the printer with Patient Confidential, Tips and Advice To Keep You Safe As You Navigate the Healthcare System.

I am proud to have received another endorsement for the book.

Internationally known neurosurgeon and innovator, Fred Geisler, M.D., Ph. D., McLaren Medical Center, Petoskey, Michigan wrote: 

"From my perspective as a practicing physician, an informed and knowledgeable patient makes my job a lot easier.  I highly recommend Richard Lang’s book for anyone interfacing with the complexities of the medical system."

Patient Confidential Endorsements

Steven J. Mash, M.D., Orthopaedic Surgeon and founding shareholder of M & M Orthpaedics, Ltd. Wrote: “Patient Confidential is the book every doctor wishes their patient would read before starting treatment.  Patient Confidential will give the reader the ability to be a smart consumer and partner in his or her own health care decisions.”

 

Lois Hoitenga Roelofs, Ph.D., RN, Professor Emerita of Nursing, Trinity Christian College and Author of Caring Lessons: A Nursing Professor’s Journey of Faith and Self wrote: “From my perspective as a nurse, teacher, and oftentimes patient myself, I recommend Patient Confidential as a must-have tool that promises to greatly diminish fear-of-the-unknown that naturally occurs when pushed into new and strange environments. Lang’s humor, too, will smooth your journey.”

Countdown to Launch - Patient Confidential

I am anxiously anticipating the launch this Fall of my new book, Patient Confidential, Tips and Advice to Keep You Safe As You Navigate the Healthcare System. Unfortunately, I am a frequent-flier patient. It started in earnest when I was twelve years old and has continued for over fifty-seven years. I have had over thirty-five surgeries or invasive procedures and spent, in the aggregate, over sixty days in at least six hospitals and countless partial days in outpatient surgery settings, MRI machines, CT Scanners, physical therapy clinics, doctors’ offices and laboratories. I wrote Patient Confidential because I think I can help almost all people, whether they are patients or care givers, by relating all that I learned from my too-vast experience.
