Customer Reviews

Excellent resource

This text is a fantastic resource for the practitioner new to the treatment of venous diseases. It is an indispensible tool in setting up a phlebology practice. The appendices of office practice tools (i.e.-eval forms, consents, manufacturers) was a wonderful suprise. Bravo!

The best book avialable for the subject at this time.

Dr. Goldman covers the topic from A-Z. He cover both the smaller (spider) and larger verins in his book which is not a large volume despite its price. He provides the young physician with a concise, orderly manner with whihc to approach the problems in his practice, the tools, medications, methodology and and the forms both for record keeping and legal implications. It is a "turn key" program that if done with attention to detail will serve the new pracitcioner of this medical discipline well, whether dermatologist or plastic surgeon
