Press for First, Do No Harm

Great reviews for my first book: First, Do No Harm

"...a fascinating read for anyone working in healthcare. He offers an alternative to the historic handling of medical malpractice and truly believes that the public's trust in the medical profession can be resurrected." Nancy Herbein RN, CNOR - AORN Journal

"First, Do No Harm is a riveting revelation of a severe social problem. First, Do No Harm goes beyond pointing out the injury, however it offers viable strategies for inproving national health care." The Bookwatch, The Midwest Book Review


"One of the largely ignored findings of the Harvard Medical Malpractice Study is that, although most physicians who responded to a survey were willing to admit that all doctors make mistakes, they are often unwilling to label substandard care the result of negligence. First, Do No Harm confronts this view head on and proposes a way to start thinking seriously about how to reduce medical errors and maybe even the amount of malpractice litigation." Neil Vidmar Ph. D. Duke University Law School - New England Journal of Medicine
