Presented by Christina Gomez, MD

A life-threatening diagnosis. Impossible choices. Patients coping with life, death and cancer treatments.

Meet Christina Gomez, MD, the gastrointestinal medical oncologist as she presents Stopped in My Tracks and signs your copies. In her book, she welcomes you into her exam room: the intimate place of encounter between patient and physician. In Stopped in My Tracks, she shares fifteen years of collected quotes from patients in the trenches of their cancer care. Their words are the art of medicine embodied. Far from a litany of symptoms, these patients' words evoke the full spectrum of experience and emotion.

Dr. Gomez sensitively captures her patients' voices in this poignant collection, which makes a perfect gift for anyone in your life touched by cancer. Pull up a chair and prepare to be stopped in your tracks.
