Reviews
This exceptionally well-written book is easy to read (estimated 9th grade reading level) and helpful to women wishing to understand fibroids and make health decisions... Highly recommended. -- Nancy Crossfield Consumer Connection 2007 Dr. Stewart offers practical, down-to-earth advice about when to seek treatment and which choice may be optimal in a given situation. American Journal for Nurse Practitioners 2008 A heavily referenced work recommended... for comprehensive consumer-health collections and large public libraries. Library Journal 2007 Addresses the newest research into fibroids and their treatment. -- Rebecca Traister Salon 2008 This book is a comprehensive account of uterine fibroids for the motivated patient. Doody's Review Service 2008 Readers are unlikely to find many 'here is what you should do' answers. Rather, one will walk away with greater insight, recommendations on how one might proceed and likely more questions than when one began. Uterine Fibroids: The Complete Guide is a must-read for every woman and should be on the reading list of all medics. -- Mohammad Sami Walid, M.D., Ph.D. Journal of the National Medical Association 2008 Very readable. I think that most patients and even some medical staff, will find this book very informative and helpful. -- Elizabeth E. Puscheck American Society for Reproductive Medicine 2008
