The books cover medical gaslighting, patient advocacy, second opinions and choosing a surgeon, misdiagnosis, health insurance battles and medical debt, telemedicine, direct primary care, hospital-at-home, clinical trials, medical tourism, emergency rooms, health literacy, health misinformation and AI health tools. Fifty people write in each volume, and they are specific about what actually worked.
