Good book...January 11, 2009 S. Berry(PA, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great book to have for anyone that has to learn and write a history and physical or perform a physical exam on a patient. It is 'easy reading' and the pictures are quite helpful. It's a great book to learn with and as a reference for anyone that may need to brush up on their patient skills.
Excellent bookJuly 12, 2008 K. Thomas(New York) 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
The book was true to description- Never used. It still had the CDs in it. The price was excellent ($10.00 for a book that cost $100+) and delivery was fast.
Required for school, but going into my personal libraryMay 26, 2008 Victoria Powell(Benton, AR) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am taking BSN courses and this text is required. The book includes a CD which I have not had the time to review.
The text is very good. It has a great flow from system to system. There are many color photos to explain the various findings. The book is through and I especially love the red text in the borders that explains the criticial thinking of the assessment coupled with the finding.
I own a Mosby's guide from my previous Nursing classes. I thought it was good until I purchased Bates. This is my new favorite examination text and one I will keep in my personal library for years to come.

Great BuyApril 4, 2008 Neeral Shah 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am a Physician Assistant Student and i have to admit that every semester we are required to buy books and at the end of every semester i sell my books buy. This was the only one i did not sell back. Its great for a person who is beginning the medical field and is great for someone who just wants to brush up on technique. The CD located in the back of the books is really not that helpful because it skips critical parts of the physical exam however its good to see how to do certain things. Most of the books chapters are well organized except for the HEENT chapter bc its all over the place. However i LOVE my Bates and i still use it on clinical rotations.
