5.0 out of 5 stars Mayo Clinic Guide to Women's Cancers, March 21, 2006
By 
Chris (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mayo Clinic Guide to Women's C (Hardcover)
When a family member was recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer, a dear friend sent immediate help by giving us a copy of this book. I can't say enough about how helpful it is to have the information this book provides. It has diagrams, easy explanations, is comprehensive in the information it presents about types of cancers, and treatments. We were comforted by having so many questions answered, and better prepared by light years to converse with and understand what the doctors and surgeons were saying.

I am a pastor, and I have purchased my own copy of this book, because it is such an excellent resource and one I can use as I walk with people who are diagnosed with cancer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Presenting medical concepts in plain terms, February 15, 2005
This review is from: Mayo Clinic Guide to Women's C (Hardcover)
The collaborative effort of diverse experts in the Mayo Clinic Women's Cancer Program, Mayo Clinic Guide To Women's Cancers is a thorough, in-depth reference for the lay reader who needs to know the latest information about female-specific types of cancer. Sections cover breast cancer, including the latest discoveries of genetic research, other gynecological cancers including those of the ovaries, cervix, vagina, vulva, and other parts of the female reproductive system, practical advice for living with the day-to-day physical and emotional stresses of cancer and its treatment, and much more. The text is highly accessible to the lay reader, presenting medical concepts in plain terms and offering readily followed advice. Highly recommended.
