4.0 out of 5 stars
Simple. Concise. Helpful.,
By Angelo Lozada (Univ. of Sto. Tomas, Philippines) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blueprints in Family Medicine (Paperback)
Blueprints in Family Medicine is not only useful for steps 2&3 USMLE takers. Students like myself have found this book useful as a quick and easy reference when in comes to common clinical problems and questions.This book has helped me pinpoint to answers to medical cases discussed in school. It provides essential information and possible causes of common patient compliants. The brief but substantial explanation of the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, diagnostic approach, and treatment/management of common diseases gives the student astute understanding of the disorders and diseases found in the book.

Great resource for both residents and medical students with concise overviews of the most common presenting illnesses seen in general family practice. I used it to study for Step 3, and found it a very high yield reference.
