Today’s Cancer
Patient Can Now Access Vital Info
at Over 800 Barnes & Noble, Borders Locations Across
U.S.
(Kansas City, MO) The 2007 debut of a
comprehensive cancer treatment and facilities guide for
patients and their families was viewed as a successful publishing
launch by all measures. So much so, company officials say,
that the next step in getting this indispensable information
into the hands of those who need it most seemed clear: national,
retail distribution.
And that’s exactly what’s
happening.
Patient
Resource Publishing founder Linette Atwood today announced
that the Patient Resource Cancer Guide is available for
purchase at major bookstores across the country.
“We are very pleased to make this
guide available in all the major chain bookstores,”
Atwood said. “It means we are touching hundreds of
thousands of cancer patients and their family members where
they already find themselves shopping on a regular basis.”
The cancer guide sells for $6.95 at retail
and on the publication’s website. It is distributed
free of charge at more than 7,000 oncology offices and cancer
treatment facilities nationally.
“Our goal is simple: We want every
cancer patient in America to have access to the vital information
contained in Patient Resource,” Atwood said. “We
want to arm cancer patients with the tools they need to
make informed medical decisions.”
Content in this cancer guide is supervised
by Medical Editor Charles M. Balch, M.D., F.A.C.S., who
serves as Professor of Surgery and Oncology at the internationally
respected Johns Hopkins Medical Center in Baltimore.
“I truly believe that an
informed and educated cancer patient will find a way to
get the best care…..and live better and longer,”
says Dr. Balch.
