Review of Surviving the Business of Healthcare
[Following is a volunteer review of "Surviving the Business of Healthcare" by Barbara Galutia Regis PA-C.]
Barbara Galutia Regis PA-C wrote the book Surviving the Business of Healthcare. It's an eye-opening article that would make one value his or her health more. As a 4th generation family practice provider with a lot of experience, she shared many insights on health, such as meeting a doctor when sickness arises, rather than taking self-medication that could result in the ailment eating the person up or leading to something fatal, knowing how the healthcare system works, how important health insurance is, why it's necessary to choose a doctor who listens to patients, rather than one whose only decisions remain final, and how to check that you received the right drug prescriptions before leaving the clinic. All these and more were incorporated into this book.
This book was well-detailed and explanatory. The writer revealed a lot of tips that made me see the need to make informed decisions about things concerning my health. Although at the end stage of compiling this book, she fell ill because of the presence of cancer in her body system, she was able to finally heal because she made authentic health choices. Her recovery period, which became a learning process for her, coupled with the experiences she got from her medical profession, birthed this beautiful book. Ignorance is a very bad thing; I'm glad that this book educated me. Many people have continued suffering from one health issue or the other because of a lack of access to the right information that could guarantee their healing.
The pictures of some of the
characters were incorporated, such as pictures showing when the writer's parents started their medical practice, pictures showing her father's residency graduation day, pictures from her surgery experiences, and pictures of her and her husband, Tony. A picture of her dog, Abby, lying beside her sick bed was also shown; this made me realize that animals have feelings for those who care for them. Abby sensed that the writer wasn't feeling well, and he went all out for her by watching over her.
I encountered only a minor error, so I would say that it was professionally edited. There was no part of the book that I detested. The content was an enlightening one. I learned a lot of medical terms that I didn't know before. I also learned that early detection of diseases saves more lives than late detection; immediately the author sensed that her health wasn't alright, she took the first step by rushing to meet with her doctor. For all these reasons, I gave it a rating of four out of four stars.
I recommend it to avid readers of self-empowerment books, enlightening stories, cancer patients, other sick people, medical doctors, and anyone that wants to know what it takes to make good health decisions because it will be helpful to them.
