The #1 annually updated text in internal medicine! The annual classic that puts research where it belongs...into your practice 5 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW
"This is for everyone looking for medical information, from house officers, residents, and practicing physicians to patients and family members. There is very little unnecessary text and the book is quite easy to use with a modicum of medical knowledge....This book has the tremendous benefit of being updated yearly and thus has stood the test of time for recognizing what is helpful and what works.

 content good July 29, 2010
Natasha
content really good but pages are really flimzier than I expected. Always have to handle with kid gloves.
 I love this book June 28, 2010
Adam C. Byrd
I'm an M4, and I really like this book. It contains information about a lot of diseases encountered in general medicine, but it is not too in-depth. I used it a lot to study for USMLE Step 2CK (in addition to Crush Step 2). I used it as a reference book, reading about topics which I poorly understand. I like the wording. I like the photos in the middle. It is also a great value -- I don't think I even paid $40 for it brand new. It is my opinion that anyone who wants to break the average on medicine boards or USMLE Step 2CK should read from this book throughout M3 year, or at least during your medicine rotation.
 Current Medical practice and treatment 2010 June 6, 2010
James C. Kauer (Kennett Square, PA United States)
A very useful volume for any of those of us who find ourselves as patients and want to know what to ask the doctor. Some of the pictures are off-putting. For the squamish the Merck home medical manual might be easier going.
Perfect May 30, 2010

A key reference for any college-level medical collection May 16, 2010
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Clinicians famous in their respective fields have produced 2010 Current Medical Diagnosis & Treatment, a solid survey of treatment and symptoms of over 1,000 diseases and disorders. College-level medical reference libraries will appreciate the focus on clinical diagnosis and patient management tools, and will note this is the only text to include an annual HIV infection update. Hundreds of drug treatment tables, ICD-9 codes, new topics on vaccines and Chikungunya fever, and more make this a key reference for any college-level medical collection.
