Find your way: illness, doctors and healthcare answers those questions and more.
There is no training on how to be in charge of your health, when and where to seek medical advice, or how to become doctors' partners. We learn this as we go through our or our loved one's struggles with illnesses and experiences with doctors and healthcare.
In her book, Dr. Gibson, a practicing physician, originally from Siberia, reveals her struggles of going through her own illness as a patient, experiencing the vulnerability and uncertainty of a life-changing diagnosis. Through her personal and patients' journeys, Gibson tells stories of recovery and healing and brings practical lessons on how to take charge of your health, become your clinician's partner and use healthcare services that fit your personal goals, culture, and budget.
Over three decades, Dr. Gibson's holistic approach, expertise in medical science and integrative medicine, has helped thousands of patients on two continents return to health. In her book Gibson collected suggestions and recommendations that she wishes her patients knew while looking for answers to medical questions, communicating with their doctors and medical teams, and making decisions about their health. Both entertaining and practical, Find your way: illnesses, doctors and healthcare skillfully combines story-telling with evidence-based information on health, well-being and prevention.
