Breast Cancer: Real Questions, Real Answers

This is an excellent resource for both patients and practitioners. As an oncology nurse, it is exciting to be able to highly recommend a book to patients that I know will answer their questions in an easily understandable formatt. This book gives patients the important information they need. I was very excited to read this book and have and will continue to recommend this book to my breast cancer patients.

I found Dr. Chan's honest and open discussions about coping with the devastating news of breast cancer to be inspiring and reassuring. Not only will patients and their families benefit from this information,but I would highly recommend it for the nurses who may be envolved in their care. "Thank-you" Dr. Chan for taking the time to write such a comprehensive guide book!

I am thrilled that this book exists to help guide patient's through their cancer journey. As an oncology nurse practitioner I find that many breast cancer patient's still have questions after their consultation with their physician. This book is a wonderful tool because patient's can refer to the sections they need and take their time to fully understand their condition and treatment options. I've had several patients come into the office with many sections of the book highlighted and bookmarked. These patient's stated that they felt empowered and informed and were glad that they were able to be active participants in their cancer treatment. I highly recommend this book to anyone embarking on their cancer journey.

This is a "must have" book. As I embark on my own breast cancer journey, I often am seeking answers at inopportune times, i.e. 2:00 am on Sunday morning. For those times, I found that Dr. Chan's book serves as a great resource that provides clear, understandable explanation for my concerns. This resource clarified aspects of my treatment plan (thus no surprises) and give lots of practical advice to anticipate the next step of my journey. I love the case examples. I highly recommend this book to my breast cancer peers and her support system (family and friends). Best Wishes, Celia Hogenson

My wife has Breast Cancer,and David Chan's book has given me the answers to many questions I've had about her breast cancer. This book is in a Q & A form as well as having many informative diagrams. It reads not as a Medical text book. But rather as a guide to many of the most important questions either a patient or family member will have.It also features profiles of different breast cancer patients and explains the answers to their questions or situations. I strongly recomend David Chan's book. He is both gifted as a Doctor,and an author. Good Health to you all !! ...David Kida
