"In Tales from Kentucky Doctors, Montell is a master of oral history research, presenting the bounty of his continuing harvest."―Christopher Antonsen, Western Kentucky University
"Montell's stories present a personal side of a profession typically known for its objectivity."―Kentucky Kernel
"Tales from Kentucky Doctors contains . . . heartwarming and sometimes tragic accounts that won't be found in formal medical history books."―Kentucky Monthly
"The reader will be impressed by the dedication of the doctors to their patients and communities. The important roles of these dedicated men and women of medicine in Kentucky life shows clearly on the pages of this delightful book."―Charles F. Allnutt, M.D.
"Readers will realize that the narrators from Tales From Kentucky Doctors are a vanishing breed. Dr. Robert W. Robertson Jr. of Paducah notes, 'Today medicine is literally run by insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, and hospitals.' Dr. Loren J. Ledford of Ashland agrees. But although he notes that "there's a lot of business pressures, insurance pressures, cost of threat of lawsuits, all of which sort of wear you out, I don't know of any other tangible job I could see myself doing.' And so it is with all of the physicians who, in Tales From Kentucky Doctors, relate how their compassion has overcome their frustration and fatigue."―Louisville Courier-Journal
"Ranging from humorous to tragic, Montell's stories present a personal side of a profession known mostly for its objectivity."―UK News
"Filled with enough funny stories to make it a compelling book."―Lexington Herald-Leader
"This book abounds with interesting and amusing anecdotes about life in rural Kentucky. For those of us who grew up during these times, it brings back fond memories of good times and bad."―Robert V. Haynes, Bowling Green Daily News
"Noted professor of folk studies, William Lynwood Montell, provides and interesting look into the lives of Kentuckians with this book."―Kentucky Ancestors
"The book gives us a view of doctors we don't often see and gave me a new appreciation of the service they perform. The book lets us see the human side of physicians―the humorous, the heartwarming―the tradition of health care in Kentucky."―Debbie Jenkins Cook, Harrodsburg Herald
