CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 30 reviews)

Excellent resource by Elizabeth (Minnesota) 5 Stars
April 04, 2006
I bought this book a few years ago after being diagnosed with MVP. I read the personal stories and felt great sympathy for the people who were experiencing so many symptoms which I didn't have. However, in the past two years, I have experienced many new symptoms and this book has been so reassuring and helpful in giving me ideas about how to control them. I have found Dr. Scordo to have much more knowledge about MVP than any of the primary care physicians I have visited. This book has been immensely helpful to me and I would highly recommend it to anyone diagnosed with MVP.

EXCELLENT! by Clarissa (California) 5 Stars

At first I was a little concerned because of some of the negative reviews. But I did my research and found Dr. Scordo's information at the faculty site of her university. The book will speak for itself. It is excellent with excellent information. Love the stories of other people with MVPS and love all the helpful advice. I too am a teacher and appreciated the additional references in the book. Without any doubts, this is a great book for those who want to learn more about MVP!

I would like to correct some misinformation in the review posted by Louis in Alabama. The author has a PhD in Nursing, Cardiac Physiology, not an "unrelated field."

Life Style Saver by Joanne Dienger (Cincinnati, Ohio, USA) 5 Stars

This book is the best one you can get on the market! She worked miracles when she led the MVP Syndrome Support group in Cincinnati! She is well educated, and I know she has a PHD in Cardiac Nursing! This book can be a life style saver, if you are willing to read it and apply the recomendations to your life. You can't go wrong with this book! It will validate everything you are experiencing! You will no longer feel like it is all in your head. Kris Scordo has studied, and worked with the MVP patients. You can't go wrong with this book!

Warning - Most of these reviews are fake! by mashe (Benicia, CA USA) 1 Stars

Notice how the same 3 or 4 people keep writing 5 star reviews for this book? Some friends of "Doctor" Scordo perhaps? You should know that Dr. Scordo is not even a medical doctor. Save some money and try this book instead: Natural Therapies for Mitral Valve Prolapse by Ronald L. Hoffman. Shame on you, Dr. Scordo!
