Book Reviews of A Parent's Guide to Ear Tubes

Book Review: A Wonderful Resource for Parents
Summary: 5 Stars

When my son had chronic ear infections and the possibility of ear tubes was suggested to us, I searched for a book that could explain in a 'parent-friendly' way the procedure we were considering. I could not find a book at the time that was written specifically for parents. Luckily my family doctor recommended that we see Dr. Rosenfeld. He very patiently explained the pros and cons of ear tubes and also took us step by step through what would happen to our son both before and after the tubes were inserted. His clarity with us and his gift of interacting with children made us feel at ease. It has been over two years since our son had ear tubes inserted and the change in his health has been amazing. For him, the decision to have tubes placed resulted in far fewer sicknesses, improved speech/language, and better attentiveness in school. Dr. Rosenfeld's book is written with the same informative, clear manner he uses when speaking with patients. The book is an excellent resource which will be invaluable to all parents who need to make an informed decision about ear tubes.

Summary of A Parent's Guide to Ear Tubes

Ear tubes are inserted in more than 10,000 children every week in the United States. Written by an international authority on otitis media (middle ear problems), A ParentĀ?s Guide to Ear Tubes will help you decide if your child needs ear tubes and how to benefit most if ear tubes are placed. The book addresses, in a straightforward manner, the myriad of concerns that accompany ear problems. It is an easy read for parents offering practical information previously unavailable in one place. Most importantly, you will achieve peace of mind and a feeling of control over your childĀ?s ear problems. Need to know information is well-supported by accompanying color illustrations.

The aim of this guide is to:

help your child feel great and sleep well, achieve peace of mind and a feeling of control over your childĀ?s ear problems, allow your child to progress as rapidly as possible with speech, language, and learning, reduce, or eliminate, the need for oral antibiotics by using antibiotic ear drops, when necessary, permit your child to bathe and swim without earplugs, headbands, or other water precautions, and keep the tubes functional and trouble-free for the longest time possible.
