Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A tool for all doctor visits
Richard Wurman has provided a set of tools that will make a visit to the doctor better.

Everyone should take this book with them on each visit, ensuring that you will leave the office with improved health (and a health plan more focused on your needs).
