Calm, not alarming
Health information shouldn't leave you more anxious than when you started. Every chapter is written to reassure first, then guide.

Internal Medicine, for real people — not textbooks
For more than 25 years, I've sat across the desk from patients in their 50s, 60s, and beyond — the same smart, capable people, asking the same handful of questions, appointment after appointment: "Is this normal?" "What should I actually do about it?" "Where do I even start?"
Somewhere along the way I noticed the problem wasn't a lack of information. It was too much of it — scattered across a hundred contradicting articles, none of it organized, none of it written for a real person trying to live their life.
So I wrote down everything I tell my own patients — the 28 concerns that come up again and again — and put it into one calm, plain-language plan. Not a textbook. Not a wall of hype. Just what's actually going on in your body, and one simple thing to do about it.
