Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great resource for family practice
I am a recent graduate from a family practice residency. I used this book in residency and ordered one soon thereafter to use in my own practice. The patient exercise handouts on the CD are excellent.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A ER intern's review
As a 1st year ER resident, I picked this book up to supplement my knowledge on basic musculoskeletal and orthopedic injuries.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent musculoskeletal book
I am a first year physician assistant student. As a student, this is an excellent resource to have. It is very organized and easy to read. Unlike other books where you have to look/search for information, this book lists definitions of the syndrome, clinical symptoms, and tests: physical and diagnostic, differential diagnosis, treatment, and then additional home exercises all in order. Highly recommend it...one of my favorite books



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essentials of Musculoskeletal Care
I am working in an Orthopaedic office as a Nurse Practitioner and find this book to be an invaluable reference, particularly for assessing specific areas I am less familiar with.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essentials of Musculoskeletal Care
If you're going to be in practice, you had better own this book. Every general practice physician I know owns this book, and every mid-level provider ought to have one, as well. Concise, easy to read/understand, discusses complaints by body region, includes IDC-9 codes.
