About the Book

NOW IN PAPERBACK! One of the best health books of 2009--Wall Street Journal One of America's most trusted voices on women's health offers women expert, reassuring advice on all that occurs "down there" What would you ask if your best friend were also a physician? What might your mother ask, if she had the nerve? The questions--and the answers--are in Ask Dr. Marie. By addressing women directly and honestly, but with compassion and understanding, ABC News Medical Contributor Dr. Marie Savard reveals that there are no off-limits questions, no dark secrets of womanhood. . . .

And she knows how to communicate in a manner that is both informative and supportive. Information that is both accurate and understandable--a winning combination."--Dr. Timothy Johnson, ABC News Medical Editor "I continue to marvel at Dr. Marie's ability to break complex medical issues into digestible, easy-to-understand nuggets. Her care and concern for women is evident, and women are better for it."--Rene Syler, author of Good Enough Mother "Dr. Marie is one of America's most trusted voices in women's health, and her ability to make complex topics simple and understandable has made her my go-to person for health information."--Marissa Jaret Winokur, Tony Award-winning actress
