too much medicine

Meet Dr. Gottfried who will be signing copies of his new book TOO MUCH MEDICINE. Dr. Dennis Gottfried has over 25 years of experience as a general internist and gives us a perspective on whom we should be listening to that is vastly different from the way many of us now sample our healthcare. His arguments, his evidence, and his stories are quite remarkable. What the future holds may not be more of the same as he argues that more of the same is really not what we need as individuals or as a society. He looks at the needs of the individual vs. the needs of society and at balancing wants with the evidence that will provide the best benefit for the risks involved. This work is thorough, referenced without bias, and contains good advice and a workable prescription for better health care. “What we need to know about medical testing could fill a book. Thankfully, Dennis Gottfried wrote it. Dr. Gottfried’s engaging and thoughtful look at the medical industry is must reading for anyone who goes to a doctor or might conceivably need one someday.” --Alan Colmes, Fox News
