5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for 3rd year med school,
By MISHMANKA (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: CURRENT Obstetric & Gynecological Diagnosis & Treatment (Paperback)
I used this book as a supplement to my 3rd year clerkship in med school. It is not a huge text, so it was great for looking up the details that were not found in Blueprints, especially if you are interested in OB for a career. The book is well organized and is easy to read. Too much to read for board review or shelf exams, but an excellent reference book for OB/GYN.
1.0 out of 5 stars
The new edition not available as Kindle eBook,
This review is from: CURRENT Obstetric & Gynecological Diagnosis & Treatment (Current Obstetric and Gynecologic Diagnosis and Treatment) (Kindle Edition)
I do not understand why only an old edition of such a wonderful book is available as a Kindle eBook. This has been what, in fact, has kept me from purchasing a Kindle!
3.0 out of 5 stars
It isn't as specific as I would have liked.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: CURRENT Obstetric & Gynecological Diagnosis & Treatment (Paperback)
I work in family practice and use this for more complicated issues I'm not familiar with. Didn't offer exact treatment protocols and/or dosages. Not as detailed as I would have liked.
