In this groundbreaking book, author Lorene Burkhart challenges each of us to enter the era of empowered patients by letting go of past practices and embracing outcome-based medical services. Being accountable for one's own body and health is a huge step toward improved medical relationships. She rejects the old authoritarian system of "handing it over" to a doctor as one that is no longer appropriate or wise, and that made its exit when the Internet made its entrance. Using a variety of resources as a guide, Burkhart encourages patients to be their own medical advocates with the ultimate reward being their good health. "'Sick of Doctors?' shines bright light on the impactful but often flawed training received by our health professionals and empowers readers to clear away the prejudices--both naive and pessimistic--that hinder our ability to form effective partnerships in the healing endeavor." -Mehmet Oz, MD, FACS New York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia
