Excellent Point Of care Resource on DIABETES for Primary Care
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I just bought my hard copy last month and I have also heard Dr Jeff Unger in person on diabetes seminars. He is a primary care physician and being primary care physician myself this book is all I need to know improve diabetes care for my patients. This is not a Harisson or a detailed Thesis on Diabetes but practicle great point of care informations and diferent tools which can be used in an office settings to educate patient and office staff to improve diabetes care. With the fact that 90% of Diabetic population in US (out of approx 22 million people with diabetes)being taken care by Primary care physicians this is a must have tool I believe. The only thing better than the book is to hear Dr Jeff Uner in person. I would definately recommened this book to every Primary care MD or residents.

If you treat Diabetic patients you should get this book. Written by a diabetic Family Physician who understands that to treat diabetes you need to "think like a pancreas." This book was written to provide primary care doctors the tools we need to care for these challenging patients. I got this book the first week it was out and I haven't regreted it. With the explosion of Diabetes there are not enough consultant physicians (specialists) out there to care for all of these patients. Dr Unger provides the information we need to provide excellent care for our diabetic patients. I cannot praise this book enough. The only thing better is hear Dr Unger lecture on Diabetic Care in person.

Amazingly comprehensive review of all aspects of diabetes. This book is up to date, evidence-based, case based and most importantly, written from the heart. Rarely do medical text books read like novels. This is the exception. Check out the chapter on managing mental illness in patients with diabetes. The complications chapter is the most comprehensive and current review I have encountered.
