Mrs. M.D. (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Mrs. M.D. (en Inglés)"
"If laughter truly is the best medicine, then Dr. Margie Peppercorn has written a fantastic prescription in Mrs. M.D. She shares from an endless trove of hilarious mishaps and adventures that seemed to have been her daily life." Daniel Gruenstein, M.D., Pediatric Cardiologist_____Mrs. M.D. gives a humorous look at a woman physician trying to combine the demands of a busy pediatric practice with those of her family and menagerie of animals. It starts with her a young female doctor in the then mostly male world and continues through her large practice where her frazzled receptionist was once heard answering the phone, "Pediatric Associates, can you help me?"Her journey is filled with stories about her patients and the precious perspectives that children bring such as the boy peering into his sibling's left ear to see if the otoscope light in the right would shine through and the toddler refusing to give a urine sample saying, "big boys pee in potties not in cups." There are also stories of babysitter problems, household problems, and pet problems such as the horse that got stuck in the mud, the pony in the basement, and the sheepdog stealing student lunches at the school.Mrs. M.D. combines insight, humor and pathos to chronicle the true events of the author's multifaceted life. As her younger son told his elementary school teacher at the time: "If you ever wanted to know what it is like to be a doctor, a mother, live in a zoo and lead a wild and woolly life, then this is the book for you."____"With humor, vulnerability, and honesty, this powerful, engaging book brings us into the colorful funny life of a woman doctor." Barbara Zucker, Psychotherapist
