    Great Resource for Palliative Care Physicians
    Khazi Nayeemuddin, MD Mar 19, 2020 Report Abuse
    I have thus far read the Volume 3 (on pain management), which I felt is a a Great Resource for Opioids Prescribers in this era of Opioid crisis. The case based scenarios are outstanding examples the authors have worked on it diligently, this makes the readers thorough and comfortable in opioid rotations, and have a safe practice of pain medicine. I will be happy to add my recommendations to the other volumes when I am done reading. My additional suggestion for authors: Adding questions at the end of chapters or at the end of the book will be feather to the crown for future editions if that can be considered by the authors. Nonetheless I would recommend every resident and fellow to use this resource, especially from Primary Care, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pain Medicine, and Critical Care/Emergency medicine physicians.

    Reading choice for all dictors
    Gauresh H Kashyap, MD Apr 7, 2018 Report Abuse
    Very nicely written. The books are worth reading for all specialists, sub-specialist who see acute or chronically ill patients and who see terminally ill patients who are likely to die soon.
