Dr. Jeff Spiess has been recognized as a leader in the field of end-of-life care. Jeff has spent his medical career with people facing serious illness and death, first as an oncologist, then as a hospice physician.

Jeff is the author of, Dying with Ease: A Compassionate Guide for Making Wiser End-of-Life Decisions. It contains the practical nuts and bolts information about advance care planning, hospice, palliative care, and ethical and legal issues surrounding dying in America.
