review 1: Interesting "behind the scenes" look at the White House Medical Unit. Dr. Marino was certainly an overachiever, but, as you'll see, at the expense of her family. maybe that's the real story here (Tip for Rahm Emanuel - read this book!). Otherwise, a somewhat overdramatic chronology of the unit's work during the Cinton Administration. Somewhat rambling toward the end, as if her editor said that she needed to fill x number of pages, but really didn't have anything else to say. None theless, nod a bad read.
review 2: I had never thought about the president having a medical team always nearby, as close as the Secret Service. This book illuminates the function of the White House Medical Service. Mariano had quite a few firsts while serving the president, including... more revamping the Medical Service procedures. I will admit that the memoir portion of the book (her personal triumphs and thoughts on becoming a Rear Admiral) paled in comparison to the tales about the training and White House atmosphere. less
