Great office "partner" by T. A. Jessie (SE North Carolina)

5 Stars
August 21, 2004
As a solo general surgeon just out of residency, I have found this text very helpful in constructing DDx and planning Tx. And, with no GI doc in town, I've found myself handling work-ups that they generally would handle such as chronic diarrhea, dysphagia or IBS. It helps me quickly and efficiently find an answer to a problem patient, whether it be in the office or after an EGD or colonoscopy that reveals unexpected/unfamiliar findings.
