5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent complement resource, Mar 23 2010

This review is from: Case Files Internal Medicine, Third Edition (Paperback)
Looking back on my internal medicine rotation (Jan/Feb 2010),I found this book to be the most helpful source of information with respect to the shelf exam.

I don't believe that it contains all of the information that you need to know, or for that matter, should know for your future. I do believe that it takes the critical concepts of diagnosis and management that you need for the shelf exam, and that you need to build a foundation on in further studies.

I used this text during the final week of my rotation, as a study guide for the shelf. Previously in the rotation I had read Step-up To Medicine once through. This book, used properly, allows for practice in the type of questions you'll be asked on the shelf. I also found that with 55 cases, every major disease that I was asked about was covered in this text in sufficient detail to answer the questions. Gives you the amount of information you'd need to know in the real world to speak intelligently with someone about a disease and it's treatment.

Worth every penny and then some as both a study guide and a quick read to refresh your knowledge base at any time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great case-based approach, July 27 2011
By PRD - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Case Files Internal Medicine, Third Edition (Paperback)
Learning through cases and vignettes is the backbone of this book, and it's a good way to learn key information about common diseases in internal medicine. Each section starts with a case and is followed by a discussion on the important features of the disease. It can't take the place of a larger medicine text but is a good companion and review for shelf exam. Definitely a good resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I've come across so far, Sep 15 2010
By Landon Roussel - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Case Files Internal Medicine, Third Edition (Paperback)
This book has been the best book I've used on the floors so far. The cases are concise and contain the key pearls of information you need to know on the floors. Moreover they are introduced in the style of a typical case presentation of a given problem. The different cases are organized into 60 major topics that are relevant to internal medicine. I've found just reading one or two cases a day on my medicine rotation an excellent aid to help me pick up information that I normally might miss in rounds, or by the mere fact that 3 months is just too short of a time to see everything you'll see on the test. I highly recommend this book as a study aid, in addition to MKSAP questions.
