Customer Reviews

Great resource!

I used this for my Primary Care Clerkship in 3rd year medical school. It was an excellent tool to give you all the basics of all areas in family medicine and primary care. The reading is easy and there are great figures and tables to give you clear and concise information.

Great book for evidence based medicine

This was recommended by a friend and I have been using it to study for the family practice boards. Is a wonderful review book that really sums up alot of information. Great quick read that is a wonderful base. Would highly recommend.

Great text for medical students on a family medicine clerkship!

I used this book during my family medicine clerkship during third year of medical school and thought that it was useful as a primary textbook and also served well as a reference text. There is a lot of good information that is well organized and easy to read. I would suggest buying this text if you have a family medicine clerkship coming up (this probably applies to nursing and PA students as well).

good review

The first third of the book has information for someone who is about to enter a residency. The last two thirds has chapters for someone that is about to enter their third year. I have yet to understand that reason why they included this seemingly different information in one book. It should be split into two.

Perfect condition - great purchase

I'd definitely buy from this seller again. The book was "like new" just as described, and it arrived in less than a week. I am very happy with my purchase & will look for more books from them in the future. A+++++
