Reviews

"This is an excellent resource for those in clinical rotations and preparing for the USMLE Step 2 CS ... The approach is systematic and the book is well written ... This is an excellent complement to other basic manuals on the physical examination. It will help reinforce the important aspects of a thorough basic examination and guide the reader more in learning the variations encountered in daily practice that translate to physical diagnoses." -- Doody's Notes "Many other texts make it a mystery regarding what to do with the findings of a particular exam. This text cuts to the chase and tells the reader what to consider if they find a positive exam." - 4th year medical student, Medical College of Wisconsin
