Critics Review
In Search of Dignity is a compilation of essays and op-ed pieces-past and present-that explore both personal and professional observations and experiences encompassing that vast body of work that he hopes will appeal to both medical professionals and lay people alike. * Michele Marko, Postmedia News, 22 Jan 2026 *The writings here are drawn from 40 or so years of clinical practice, musing, testing and reflection. […] Making articles first published in medical journals for other medical parties available to the general public can come with some risk. The first clue that this not the case with In Search of Dignity is the author’s willingness to be known as Harvey rather than the impressive but distancing Dr. Chochinov. The second clue is his sense of humour, and the third the absence of jargon, which helps keep the reader engaged and feeling included. * Ron Robinson, Winnipeg Free Press, 14 Feb 2026 *
