5.0 out of 5 stars
Great organization-done by symptoms.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 20 Common Problems in Primary Care (Paperback)
This book has been very helpful. It has chapters by symptoms (cough, headache, sore throat, etc) and then discuss the most common causes of these. It includes current treatment options, along with statistics of success rates. It also includes alternatiave therapies and common mistakes made by primary care physicians. It is surprising how many of these "mistakes" are made in current practice.
