Reviews

[Robbie Shepherd · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quite good, but still use the regular First Aid. Some of the explanations here are too wordy, and therefore a little confusing (especially Biochem). A good resource, but don't make it your ONLY resource.

[Kei · Rating 5 out of 5]

Definitely a must-read textbook for medical students, junior physicians, or medical doctors.

Highly recommended!
