Mayo Clinic Releases First Children's Book Based On Therapy Dog

Mayo Clinic Releases First Children's Book Based On Therapy Dog: "Mayo Clinic released its first children's book featuring 'Dr. Jack,' a 9-year-old miniature pinscher who is Mayo's first facility-based service dog. Escorted by his owner, Mayo employee Marcia Fritzmeier, Jack is part of the health care team that helps patients with physical activity, rehabilitation, and speech therapy. Mayo physicians place an order in a patient's medical record when requesting a visit by Dr. Jack, who sees approximately eight to 10 patients per day."
