What Patients Say

An audit carried out at the West Middlesex University Hospital1 found that all patients issued with the Heart Manual had used it and 97% of them thought they had been helped. Here are some of their comments;

"To me it is almost like a bible"

"Informative and easy to read"

"When I was in doubt or insecure about my feelings it helped a great deal"

"...absolutely invaluable in getting me through those first few weeks of weakness and uncertainty"

"It‘s a nice gradual way to move away from the CCU psychologically"

"Full of excellent information, easy to follow, written for the lay person, packed with important facts"

"...a beautifully laid out book - easy to read, easy to understand, easy to follow"
