Joy Prescriptions
By Tiffany Moon, MD
The national bestseller from anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, and Bravo personality Dr. Tiffany Moon.
As a self-proclaimed "good girl," Tiffany was a people pleaser and A-student who fit neatly into the roles her Chinese American family prescribed for her. A lifelong overachiever, she built a thriving career as an anesthesiologist, yet found herself unfulfilled: more time at work than at home, unable to say "no" to anyone, governed by perfectionist standards. Joy Prescriptions is her journey of dropping the perfectionist trope and rediscovering who she actually was, with surprising chances taken along the way, a candle business, a reality TV series, stand-up comedy, social media. Each chapter closes with a practical "joy prescription" the reader can take into their own life.
A timely read for clinicians thinking about burnout, identity, and what a sustainable career in medicine looks like, and a generous permission slip to design something more authentically their own.
Self-Care for People with ADHD
By Sasha Hamdani, MD
Self-care for People with ADHD contains 100+ strategies for neurodiverse self-care, without pretending to be neurotypical.
When you have ADHD, it can be hard to stay on top of your wellness. Board-certified psychiatrist and ADHD clinical specialist Dr. Sasha Hamdani draws on both her clinical work and her own lived experience with ADHD to cover self-acceptance, destigmatization, community, and the day-to-day realities of physical and mental health. She offers concrete tools for managing the harder aspects of ADHD alongside ideas for bringing out its strengths, with the kind of practical specificity that comes from someone writing from both sides of the desk.
The result is a clear-eyed, deeply useful guide that gives clinicians a much richer picture of what life with ADHD actually looks like between appointments, and a set of strategies they can confidently share with patients.
The Ozempic Revolution
By Alexandra Sowa, MD
The first and bestselling comprehensive user guide to GLP-1 medications, from leading obesity medicine specialist Dr. Alexandra Sowa.
Covering Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, Dr. Sowa shares her expertise on this much-discussed but widely misunderstood class of medications. What the GLP-1 experience actually feels like. How to know if you're a candidate. How to obtain a prescription and get it covered by insurance. How to manage and reduce side effects. How to combine pharmacotherapy with nutrition, movement, and behavior change for results that last. Traditional and social media have flooded the conversation with junk information and stigmatizing headlines; Dr. Sowa brings the science to light, the good, the bad, and the ugly.
With patients increasingly sourcing GLP-1s from online pharmacies, med spas, and general practice, this is essential, current reading across primary care, endocrinology, OB-GYN, psychiatry, and beyond.
Cutting a Path
By Sheri Dewan, MD
The Power of Purpose, Discipline, and Determination, the bestselling memoir of Dr. Sheri Dewan.
Becoming a doctor is hard. Becoming a surgeon, even harder. Becoming a neurosurgeon as an Indian woman who wants a healthy work-home life and kids? Almost impossible. But not for Dr. Dewan. Always drawn to science growing up, it wasn't until neurosurgery saved her mother's life from a ruptured brain aneurysm that she set out on the path toward becoming one of roughly 200 female neurosurgeons in the United States. The trials, tribulations, and wrath of unsupportive male and female colleagues shaped the confident neurosurgeon and woman she is today. Braided with advice that applies to anyone facing adversity in pursuit of a career goal, her story asks: when the world tests you, do you have what it takes to shut out the noise, check in with yourself, and follow your passion?
Honest, eye-opening, and quietly radical, Cutting a Path opens a long-overdue conversation about gender, bias, mentorship, and sustaining a career in surgical culture.
Raising a Healthy Youth Athlete
By Vonda J. Wright, MD, and Mark D. Miller, MD
A roadmap to youth athletic development from two nationally recognized orthopedic sports surgeons, including Pinnacle faculty Vonda Wright, MD.
Millions of kids play sports growing up, and in the process learn lessons and develop the kind of physical and mental resilience they carry for life. Millions also quit, due to overuse, injury, burnout, or simply because the fun has been drained out. How do we, as parents, coaches, and clinicians, do better? Drs. Wright and Miller draw on decades of collective experience caring for young athletes to deliver a thorough, compelling guide covering science-backed recommendations on training, physical and mental resilience, nutrition, and recovery, alongside a deep-dive reference on injury identification, prevention, and treatment.
A practical, evidence-based companion for any clinician, parent, or coach who wants young athletes to stay healthy, stay engaged, and keep loving the game.

FAQs

Clinicians read the book through their preferred format, print, ebook, or audiobook, then complete guided reflection exercises through the Learn at Pinnacle app. Once their reflections are submitted, they receive a CE/CME certificate automatically.

No. We accredit books sold through major retailers, independent bookstores, publisher direct, and self-published channels. We will need to assess for commercial bias, but can work with you to mitigate this.
-
Credit hours are tied to the book's length and the depth of the reflective exercises - essentially, how long would an average reader expect to read through the book. A full-length non-fiction book typically supports 2 to 5 credits. We'll give you a specific number during our discovery call.
