The Take-Charge Patient Puts the Expertise of 200 Medical Professionals in Your Hands.

Frustrated or confused about how to get good medical care? In her newest book, The Take-Charge Patient: How You Can Get The Best Medical Care, (winner of 18 book awards) author and patient advocate, Martine Ehrenclou, empowers patients to become proactive, well informed participants in their own care. With advice and personal stories from over 200 doctors, nurses, pharmacists, health psychologists, patients and more, The Take-Charge Patient reveals insider information on how to cut through the red tape and navigate today's complex health care system with confidence.

Ehrenclou empowers readers with vital information on how to find the right doctor, how to communicate effectively with doctors, how to prepare for medical appointments, prevent medical errors and medication mistakes, obtain discounted medication, manage your health insurance, and much more. The Take-Charge Patient will forever change how you act as a patient and thereby vastly improve the quality of the medical care you receive.

Six months into her research for The Take-Charge Patient, Martine Ehrenclou developed debilitating, chronic pain and used every strategy in her new book. She went from author and advocate for others to an advocate for herself and became a take-charge patient. After eleven doctors failed to diagnose her correctly, Martine found her own diagnosis and the correct surgeon to treat her. She is now pain free.

According to Ehrenclou, your health care is a team sport. The Take-Charge Patient shows you how to take charge of what you can and become an effective player. Martine Ehrenclou has also written the 16 award-winning Critical Conditions: The Essential Hospital. Guide to Get Your Loved One Out Alive (Lemon Grove Press). Ehrenclou writes monthly articles for several health websites, national magazines, and is interviewed regularly on national TV and radio such as ABC News, ABC World News, Woman's Day, Family Circle, Los Angeles Times Magazine, Publishers Weekly, and many more. She frequently lectures on how to be an advocate for yourself and your loved ones at universities, hospitals and various organizations.

ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!!!!!!!
Color: B3: Gold Bar + Birthstone, Color: B3: Gold Bar + Birthstone
My fiancé and I lost our 3 month old baby boy. I thought long and hard and hunted through Amazon hoping to find something thoughtful to get him to comfort him and I saw these urn necklaces. I was a bit hesitant because they’re supposed to hold baby’s ashes and I wasn’t sure how he would feel about that but they arrived and we absolutely love them. There are two different chains so he will wear the thicker one and I’ll wear the thinner. The words are written perfectly, the stones are beautiful. It’s small enough that we never have to take them off and big enough to read the words clearly. It’s just the most beautiful and thoughtful gift I could ever give him. This product gets 10 stars!!!!!! Thank you to the company for giving us a gift that will keep our baby boy forever close to our hearts.

It was perfectly done!
Color: B2: Black Bar + Birthstone
Everything was perfect and nicely packaged. Included a wipe and a little funnel to put ashes in so it can go inside the necklace. Everything was done correctly. It's definitely a great product for the money you're using. The quality of the print was good. It's comfortable to wear as well. The detail I added were correct. It's a great weight as well.

Mom thinks they're comfortable.
Color: B1: Silver Bar + Birthstone, Color: B1: Silver Bar + Birthstone
Got a set for me and my brother. We both like them, they're great quality. Had a bit of an issue with mom getting stuck in the funnel the whole time, but that's an issue with her, not the product.

Came on time
Color: B1: Silver Bar + Birthstone
It’s very pretty and the engraving is precise and done well I’m not a big fan of the stone it’s not the right color for July it’s more of a dark pink instead of red but besides that it’s a good deal for the price I plan on buying 2 more hoping the color of those stones will be better.
