Inhaltsangabe

Physician heal thyself... Notes of a Private Doctor is the true story of how one such man did just that. It's a detailed insight, through the eyes of a doctor, into the life of his most challenging patient ever - himself. In this extraordinary account, he explains how his successful 47-year career ends suddenly with betrayal and, ultimately, bankruptcy. Then, within a few months, he is faced with devastating bereavement. Dr Robert Lefever looks back on his life to find out how the hell it all went so wrong, and why he didn't see it coming. Along the way he uncovers the false beliefs that led to betrayal, as well as the facts that would have prevented it, had he known them at the time. He also reveals how he got through the crisis and eventually re-built his life. What he learned in the process can be applied by anyone.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr Robert Lefever is one of the leading international specialists on addiction and is a regular contributor to the media. He established the very first rehab in the UK offering treatment to patients with eating disorders, compulsive gambling, nicotine addiction and workaholism as well as alcohol or drug problems. He also identified 'Compulsive Helping' - when people do too much for others and too little for themselves - as an addictive behaviour and has pioneered its treatment. Dr Lefever has worked with over 5,000 addicts and their families in the last 25 years and, until recently, ran a busy private medical practice in South Kensington as well as the PROMIS Recovery Centre in Kent (which he established). He now uses his considerable experience to provide intensive private one-to-one care for individuals and their families. He has written a number of books on the subject of depressive illness and addictive behaviour.
