Sidelined discloses how women are marginalized and hesitate to take control over their own healthcare.  Researcher and writer Susan Salenger explains why women are misdiagnosed more often than men, and why their symptoms often go unrecognized or even disputed. Knowing how to advocate for your own healthcare can mean the difference between healthy outcomes and years of needless agony or even death. This important women’s health book will equip readers with the knowledge, language, and skill sets they need to stop being another victim of a biased industry and get the best healthcare possible.

Autorenporträt
Susan Salenger is the author and researcher behind Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health. Sidelined examines the many ways in which some women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare.      Susan explores how women, typically the medical gatekeepers for their families, tend to be extremely conscientious about taking care of themselves, yet at the same time inadvertently undermine their own care.  Born and raised in Los Angeles, Susan attended UCLA to study English. After graduation, she worked alongside her husband Fred for 25 years at their production company, Salenger Films, which produced corporate training and development films distributed worldwide.     Today, at age 79, Susan lives in Northern California to be near her incredible family which includes her two daughters, four grandchildren, a cat named Max and a dog named JD (Salenger). When she is not speaking about her book or spending time with family and friends, you will find Susan power lifting to stay in shape.
