Customer Reviews

Great Book Great Price

This required book for my grad program was twice as much at our university bookstore. I was able to purchase it for a great price and got it right away. Great experience.

Family Medicine

This is a good book. It puts into context what we have been learning in class in the first 2 years of med school. It really gets you to thinking how to see a patient through from diagnosis to management. It has a lot of up to date material with the explanations going into enough detail without swamping you. Each case is also tailored to explore the differential diagnoses in relation to the HPI. Overall, a good read and the questions are pertinent.

Good for the clinic

The book is good for managing the patients you will see in the clinic and all of the preventive service recommendations. Don't know how it will be for the shelf exam bc i havent taken it yet.

Good book

This book is easy to read clinical cases, very relevant to family practice...good board prep

Only book I found helpful

I took family medicine in the 5th block of third year, having done everything but surgery already and tried to read other books but found them cumbersome and redundant for what I already knew. I picked up this book in the last week before the NBME and loved it, it filled in a lot of the holes in my knowledge that are only taught in FM and not in the other rotations. The family board is not just an IM board, there is a ton of preventative medicine you have to know that is not on the IM board. I scored a 92 on the test. If you take FM early in third year, read a review book first, then this book. If you take it late, read the parts of the review book you haven't taken yet, then this book.
