[Sam (RiverMoose) · Rating 4 out of 5]

AKA - Sam studies for SHELF - because for all the hours I clocked in, you best believe it counts towards the Goodreads reading goal.

As with all my logged textbooks / prep books / Case Files, I didn't read this one straight through, but used it sporadically over my clerkship to supplement my learning.

This was a required text for our Family Medicine clerkship - I read only the required chapters. And while helpful enough, this is certainly a dense textbook and there are many other study resources I preferred to use when left to my own devices.
