Reviews / Votes
"Overall, this is an excellent book on all aspects of acute and chronic pancreatitis. It is concise yet comprehensive, written by well-known and well-published, credible authorities. It will be useful not just to the intended audience of gastroenterologists and GI surgeons, but also to all physicians involved in the care of patients with pancreatitis. Most books try to cover all aspects of this complex condition in a summary fashion, which is not possible. This book fills in the gaps by providing a focused, comprehensive review including latest evidence and guidelines. 5 Stars!" (Doody Enterprises July 2017)More details
