Reviews / Votes
"The audience is medical students and healthcare professionals. ... It is quite a lofty goal to address all the possible scenarios that might be tested in an OSCE since all areas of medicine are potential testing items. The breadth of information demands tight organization, consistency, and good references to help students know which critical skills to master and how to direct their studying more effectively. At this point, the book serves as a good physical examination reference . ." (Debra S Leizman, Doody's Book Reviews, November 22, 2019)More details
