Average Rating: 
Rating: - One of the most important texts in your office
I am an attending physician in Emergency Medicine, and through residency and even today, I have used this reference more than any other. It is a must have for anyone in the field. It would be extremely helpful for anyone in primary care as well
Rating: - A great resource for learning procedures
This is an excellent book. As an ER resident, I have found this book to be invaluable in helping me to understand the procedures that I am trying to learn. This text also does more than just explain how to do the procedures; it also gives plenty of background on the underlying disease processes, the indications for the procedure, etc.
I would also mention that, even though this text is geared toward ER...I think any physician who performs a wide variety of procedures from suturing to intubating ... Read More
Rating: - Not only for the ED
I've purchased every edition of this invaluable resource. I do work in a busy, high-acuity ED, but also consider this if you're a family doc in a rural area where you might be called upon to perform a life saving procedure that you haven't seen since residency. Now if they'd just publish a pocket PC edition.......
Rating:  - Complete but somewhat dated
As an ER PA I find this large text full of many procedures useful in emergency medicine. However, by todays standards the B&W pictures and drawings are very dated. An alternative worth considering; with better pictures and detailed descriptions would be: Emergency Medicine Procedures by Eric Reichman and Robert Simon.
Rating: - An amazing reference guide.
This book lays out everything you need to know in a concise, easy to follow format. If only it wasnt so friggin gigantic. So whether you need to run to the office to brush up on a procedure you havent attempted since your second year of residency or you need something heavy to bash the hell out of a Ganglion cyst (please dont actually do that), this is a great tool.
