Fantastic for clerkships
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
As a 3rd year medical student, I found this book very helpful to have in my pocket for studying dense information in short breaks. It helped me score very well on the Shelf exam.
Great, concise reference for the medical student

This book has the essentials of over 220 topics in Peds - in a single page it gives you etiology, epidemiology, differential, signs and symptoms, treatment, and prognosis. What more can you ask for? Excellent as a quick reference and for studying.
Fast and Factual

As a practicing pediatrician, I use this book to review a few items that I have long since forgotten. I also recommend it to the medical students and pediatric residents that rotate through my office. I love the fact that the material is written in an easy to understand format. It virtually jumps off the page at you. I also think its organization into to etiology, epidemiology, differential diagnosis etc. makes it idea for the medical student. Its format reflects how you will be "pimped" on rounds and the key stats and concepts that you will see on the USMLE. A great read!!!
Great medical resource

This is a fantastic reference for residents and medical students. I especially found it useful in preparing for attending rounds, but it's also great for exam review. I'm very happy with this purchase.

I bought this book after my third year clerkship. I do wish I had it during the clerkship. Still, it has been great for Step 2 studying. I look things up very quickly and get a full picture of diseases I have a question about. The format is excellent.
