Preface
We would like to dedicate this book to all the patients and their families who taught us even more than our textbooks. We have penned these experiences in this book to enrich your experience in similar situations, and we hope that this will enable you to treat your patients even more effectively. We would also like to acknowledge all the fellows whom we have trained over the years and who taught us to introspect on how we manage our patients to their best satisfaction. Several of these trainees have contributed to chapters in this book. Finally we would like to acknowledge our families, for their understanding for being away from them as we worked on this book.
