Reviews
Drawing from his own long-term experience and expertise, as well as common questions asked by his patients and their caregivers, Dr. Mahler has written a book that will be very useful to motivated readers. I have not read other books on the topic of this scope and quality. Substantive and accurate, it touches on a comprehensive list of issues that are on patients' minds.
The physicians from MedStar Health Pulmonary recommend this book to help you to better understand your COPD.
Dr. Mahler's book is outstanding. I believe our patients will enjoy and benefit from the book.
A clear explanation of my questions concerning my COPD and presentations of different treatments available to me. These different options of treatment are explained clearly and provide the reader with visual uses of the treatments along with written instructions. I had the option of discussing which treatment I felt worked better for me with the Doctor which was a true plus. I would recommend this book to any individual suffering from COPD. It will provide you with a clearer understanding of what you can do to help living with the ailment comfortably.
