Book Reviews of Practical Guide to the Care of the Medical Patient: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access
Book Review: Way better than Sabatine's!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I tried to use Pocket Medicine by Sabatine during 3rd and 4th year of medical school b/c that is what everyone else had in their white coat pocket. I found it useful in a pinch, but also really hard to actually "read" b/c everything is abbreviated. My brain just doesn't enjoy having to decode every sentence I read... it stops absorbing information.
On the other hand, I picked up Ferri's Practical Guide for the start of intern year and I have been pleasantly surprised. Yes, it's a bit bigger in size, but you can actually pick it up and read it and LEARN STUFF! I still love UpToDate, but with the amount of information an intern/med student needs to know... it's pretty freaking hard to read each and every single article relevant to all the topics you are interested in. On the other hand, you can browse through a topic in Ferri's in just minutes, and you will pick up the most pertinent info because it is concise and organized well. Try refreshing your memory on lupus when you are on call at 4 AM by reading UpToDate... it's painful and not high yield at times like those!
