Customer Reviews

Time for a new edition.

I have had this book for 5+ years and use it constantly. I have been telling other MTs that this is the lab book to have. Appendix 2 with eponymic diseases and syndromes is a lifesaver. I was going to order the latest edition, and was surprised to see I have the latest, from 1995. If they update it, I'll order it - mine is starting to fall apart.

Excellent Reference Book

This is a "must have" for the library of anyone in the medical field that desires to have the correct word and to have the correct spelling. Medical transcriptionists take note!

Great reference book... just a little pricey

Fabulous laboratory reference book for transcriptionists. It's only drawback is its price. It's a really high quality book. The words are a bit smaller than typical Stedman's print, so a lot is cramed in there. Not having seen the Stedman's lab & pathology book I can't compare it, but I've never come across a lab term I couldn't find in this book.
