5.0 out of 5 stars
Nothing less than excellence,
By Kevin J. Martin "K-Mart" (St Charles, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essentials of Musculoskeletal Care (Hardcover)
I am a Family Practitioner in a rural setting. I have an extensive medical library, however I only have 1 copy of each book...except this one.I have a copy in both offices and one at home. The ONLY way to improve this book would be to make it free. And for what it is worth, Dr. Greene is one of the most pleasurable orthopedic surgeons on Earth to speak with. He knows more about the Human anatomy than God, yet NEVER belittles the questions he gets from us rural FP's

Easy to use,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essentials of Musculoskeletal Care (Hardcover)
This book is easy to understand. I work in a large orthopaedic surgical practice and have to get procedures approved with insurance companies on a daily basis. This book breaks down everything (signs, symptoms, what they mean) into terms that can be explained in everyday terms. It makes my job a lot easier and I have to ask the doctors less questions because this book tells me what everything means, how the doctors came to the diagnosis they did, etc. Most people that work with doctors know that they don't always tell how they know what they know. This book makes it easier. I call it "Orthopaedics for Dummies". I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to get a better understandng of the musculoskeletal system.
