Infertility, pregnancy, miscarriages, difficult births. Obstetricians see it all. Not only are they treating the most private parts of the body theyre dealing with the most intimate moments in our lives.
As a doctor specialising in high-risk pregnancy, Chavi Eve Karkowsky sees how women are failed by health services again and again. In this timely and unflinching book, she tells the stories of the families she has worked with of miracles and joy, but also of challenge and loss and explores whats at risk when womens bodies are clouded in mystery and misinformation.
Moving and compassionate, High Risk is a doctors testimonial to the strength and resilience of the women she treats, and in an era when reproductive rights are under threat a timely reminder that womens health is of vital concern to us all.
