 - Great Reference for the NP student!I love the way this book is broken down in each section including patho, presentation, diagnosis, principles of therapy, patient eduation, and therapeutic recommendations. There is even a section for referral indications. I bought this book to supplement my primary care text book, and to use as a reference for discussion boards and papers. Rating: - Standard-bearerFor an office based physician this thouroghly updated and referenced text-book offers the best evidence based information in short time of turning fewer pages. I use it more than Harrison's text-book as it more SOAP related and better cross-referenced. The editors of this brand-book made current changes, making it state of the art standard-bearer of text-books for any practicing physician. Moreover, my money is well spend when I bought this from Amazon.com store that let be browse books before I buy and has Nordstrom like sevice that makes book buying a dream. Tariq Ahmed, MD MPH, Kirkland, Washington. Rating: - Relevance of primary care textbook to my practice.This textbook is very informative and helpful in my current practice as a family physician and geriatrician. The topics are up-to-date and very relevant. Rating:  - Primary Care TextThis is a book that my family practice residency uses for diadactic readings. I have found it to be well written and organized for primary care adult medicine. It is very up to date on latest research and gives recommendations at the end of the chapter with evidence based recommendations. It can at times be a bit wordy, but overall very good. A couple down sides are there are no pediatric topics discussed and Goroll does not include any mentioning of osteopathic manipulation, even though there is some significant efficacy studies involving osteopathic manipulation. Overall a good text. Rating: - This book rules when it comes to practical adviceI like to read Harrison's now and then, but it is so genetics and research heavy that I get bored. This book is excellent because it comes from a practical perspective (i.e. for the busy clinician vs. the academic) and it breaks down problems by symptoms. A sample chapter is "The patient with dizziness". When I see patients with relatively common things that I want to refresh on, I pull out this book. Sometimes it doesn't have the detail I want, but that's what I have Harrison's for and the web. It is DEFINITELY worth the 90 bucks or so it costs to have in the library. |
