About the Author
Oleg I. Reznik, M.D. is a Board Certified Family Physician working at the Willamette Family Medical Center and in private practice, on staff at Salem Memorial Hospital, Oregon. He completed the Family Medical Residency program at State University of New York at Stony Brook.
“In my care of patients, I address both the physical and the mental aspects of health. For a patient who is interested in using his or her mental potential for healing of physical or mental illness, I use a holistic approach to address those problems before resorting to medications.”
“The Secrets of Medical Decision Making should be read by everyone, because all of us are sometimes in need of medical care. It is an eye-opener, a call to arms and a guide.”
—Robert Rich, M.Sc.,Ph.D., M.A.P.S.

I have only read one chapter of the book so far, but want to read the rest as I think it raises some valuable questions for patients to think about.
