A Parent&#39;s Guide to Ear Tubes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When my son had chronic ear infections and the possibility of ear tubes was suggested to us, I searched for a book that could explain in a 'parent-friendly' way the procedure we were considering. I could not find a book at the time that was written specifically for parents. Luckily my family doctor recommended that we see Dr. Rosenfeld. He very patiently explained the pros and cons of ear tubes and also took us step by step through what would happen to our son both before and after the tubes were inserted. His clarity with us and his gift of interacting with children made us feel at ease. It has been over two years since our son had ear tubes inserted and the change in his health has been amazing. For him, the decision to have tubes placed resulted in far fewer sicknesses, improved speech/language, and better attentiveness in school. Dr. Rosenfeld's book is written with the same informative, clear manner he uses when speaking with patients. The book is an excellent resource which will be invaluable to all parents who need to make an informed decision about ear tubes.
