Media reviews

Praise for Tilda Shalof
 • "A smart patient knows more about coping with their disease than their physician, and Tilda Shalof's insights into the rigors of heart surgery are even more provocative since she brings a nurse's wisdom to her own operation." -- Dr. Mehmet Oz, host of the The Dr. Oz Show, on Opening My Heart
 • "Shalof has seen it all, and writes about it, too." -- Calgary Herald
 • "Grey's Anatomy should be so compelling." -- Globe and Mail on The Making of a Nurse
