Customer Reviews

Excellent for Medical Short Case Finals
This is an excellent resource for clinical finals (both med and surg) as it goes through most of the clinical scenarios that could turn up and emphasises their presentation and the signs to look for. It is possibly more detailed than medical finals necessitates but it's always good to be armed with extra knowledge and it has some snippets of wisdom that I'd not read elsewhere.
It is not inspiring in its presentation however its content is excellent with some good (B&W) clinical photos. It is sparse on management so for those who will be questioned after the clinical examination, some extra information will be necessary.
