I am a PT with 4 years of experience. I found this text as an invaluable resource to reference pathologies while studying for the OCS and my residency tests. Additionally, the clinical reasoning chapters were great to help build a foundation from which to approach a clinical examination. This however is not a "how to book" on how to sequence your examination. It is as it says 5 books in 1. Part 1 had decent background on tissue healing, radiology, pain behavior, biomechanics, etc. Part 2 and 3 had solid orthopedic reasoning and orthopedic pathology sections that are well-referenced. Haven't used the pharmacology or rehabilitation section much frankly. Moral of the story, for the cost, you most likely won't find a more helpful text. But, you will need to take the time to sit down and work through it to really get your money's worth. But using it as a reference tool alone is worth your cash.

This book is really amazing!Can be use for a quick reference in the clinic.Can be use to educate patients as well in terms of management outline.Highly recommended for those who are running orthopedic or sports medicine clinics.

This text is very organized and great for entry level students, but contains plenty of research and differential diagnostic tools for the practitioner. The book is broken down into sections, going from very general to very specific. Can be very helpful in educating patients as well as honing clinical reasoning.

This book is wonderful! It breaks things down nicely as far as conditions, min/max. treatment. Times and so much more!
