Description
Highly recommended for clinical medical students I rarely write a rave review but this one is warranted. This textbook is AMAZING. It helped me do really well in my third year OSCE. It features all the core and specialties examinations and has a detailed list like description of all the steps you need to take to complete each examination. The best thing about this book is that it also has these summaries of key examination findings, and blank spaces for your own notes which make it even better than some of the other revision books out there. Amazon reviewer Invaluable, best book I have bought for a long time Bought this to help with my ANP course and its becoming invaluable. Love the way that it tells you exactly how the examination should be carried, why you are palpating/auscultating or percussing (extra information/potential findings) You then turn the page and it gives you differentials based on what you have found on your examination. Theres room for your own notes as well. Love it! Amazon reviewer I love it !!!! I love the fact that this book is really condensed - has everything that you need to know about each examination in a couple of pages. Highly recommended to all medical students out there! Amazon reviewer Essential med school purchase! Bought this for med school OSCEs. Best book Ive bought so far and Ive bought a LOT of books. It has a list of things you should be doing and explains why youre doing them. Easy to understand and well written. Amazon reviewer Excellent purchase for clinical examination Excellent for medical students (clinical years mainly). Gives the reasons for every sign we check for (useful for examiners questions in OSCEs) and also gives differential diagnosis. Probably the best book for Clinical examinations. Was recommended for 3rd years by many 4th and final year medical students. Amazon reviewer Brilliant The best and only book you need for undergraduate OSCE revision. Used this for my finals this year and it was brilliant, wish Id come across it sooner actually. Cant recommend enough. Amazon reviewer
