Customer Reviews

Bang for your buck at a price
An update of the famous book for the current year. I also have bought one other "Hot Topics" book on the market and can compare them a little. Its strengths seem to be that it has an easy layout which provides rapid (and fully referenced) updates in just about every topic you can think of. Not bad ... as all of general practice is a pretty scary remit! It's also bang up to date and well-timed for the exam intake. The only downside is that it's a few quid more expensive but medical books are pricey so I cannot niggle too much. It's seems to be well worth the extra particularly if you don't have time to do all the donkey work the loooong way

Best book for the MRCGP
This book really is as close as you can get to the "syllabus" of the MRCGP!! I bought other books but found them disappointing. This book summarises lots of key areas and is easier to read than the journals. It was the most useful book I bought for the exam. I passed!! Good luck.

If you want to pass MRCGP buy this
An updated version of arguably the best revision text on the subject. Well structured layout with up to date references to the ever-changing world of primary care. All key areas seem to be covered and a comprehensive index aids searches. Recommended.
