Book Reviews of Heartburn & Reflux For Dummies (For Dummies (Health & Fitness))
Book Review: Another useful one in this clever series ...
Summary: 4 Stars
It's true: it explains what many MDs neglect to mention in the office. Very useful reading -- BEFORE you go in to talk to the doctor. This will give you a framework for the best questions to ask. Unfortunately, the burden is on you, the patient, to ask them! Most docs volunteer nothing! Counterintuitive, I know, but it's the reality. Arm yourself with this simple, smart, easy to understand book.
