An excellent referrence source for ED, but very useful, as well, for an internist or family medicine doc in urgent care setting. Highly recommended!
Repairing any gaps of knowledge

This book is eminently clear, concise, and useful. I feel so much more confident handling lacerations, wounds, burns, and even rabies prophylaxis in the Fast Track and urgent-care settings. I recommend this to all medical students, residents, and practicing physicians desiring a practical reference. Thanks to Dr. Trott and Mosby publishing for putting this book together!
