Praise for Doctors Get Cancer Too
'We all know someone with cancer, or have had it ourselves, but if you really want to know what they are going through then read this. Dr Kaye will make you cry and laugh at her experiences on both sides of the doctor patient divide. One not to miss.' Vanessa Feltz
'This is a book about cancer but it is so very much more: it is about life, parenthood, relationships and everything that makes us human. Once I started reading I could not put it down. You will go on Philippa's journey with her, so vividly does she describe the emotional rollercoaster that cancer brings. This book should be a must for all of us, not just for those whose lives have been touched by cancer.' Sarah Jarvis, The One Show
Praise for The M Word
'This book has armed me with the knowledge that I require to make informed choices about my body health and mental stability whilst entering the menopause. I would recommend to anyone at this stage of life of even before.' Amazon Reviewer
'An excellent read on everything you need to know about the menopause – informative, easy to digest and well balanced.' Dr Sara Kayat, resident GP for This Morning
'In this book she walks you through the maze of the menopause, and guides you through all the twists and unexpected turns your menopausal journey will take you on. Talking about periods is no longer done in hushed tones – my teenage daughter and I loudly discuss her period and her little brother knows all about them – we need to achieve that openness around the subject of menopause, and this book is a very good place to start.' Sara Cox
