Reviews

"This book creates a treatment plan that dovetails and compliments conventional cancer care, and most importantly encourages physical vitality, mental clarity, and emotional balance."

-Nancy Hofreuter O'Hara, MD, MPH, FAAP



"There is an enormous unmet need for relatable, valid, clear, and helpful advice for people after cancer treatment is complete and patients are all too often abandoned to the rocky road of survivorship. Drawing on her own experience as both a practitioner and a patient, Dr. Rothenberg ably navigates the world of care and cure with the effortless encouragement of a real pro who really knows and can help you understand what's needed to step into a brighter and better future."

Inspiring with her own history with cancer, Dr. Rothenberg is a superb guide. She helps sharpen our perception and understanding of the role we play in our own recovery.

"Dr. Rothenberg speaks of empowerment, no matter the outcome, and takes docere (doctor in Latin meaning teacher) to the next level. And what a great teacher she is-able to articulate a difficult subject with a soothing voice, offering light on what at times is an obscure and darkened path. Thank you for walking with us on this journey and offering a solid set of tools to guide the way."
